Default integra gas leak HELP!!!

hey HT

Yesterday I started my car which i haven't drove for a few weeks. As soon as I started the car I look under my car there was gas dripping. I found that it was coming from a pipe which is below the brake booster and back of the engine. I need help what should i do? I dont think i want to drive it to a shop while its leaking gas. Has this ever happen to anyone please help me thanks

i drove around with a leaking tube from my fuel pump to my fuel rail for like 3 days and nothing happend... i am a dumb *** tho i popped the hood to show my boss what it looked like and i turned on the car and it was just squirting, i think that if it is not leaking on the exsaust or anything hot and you are not going that far you should be fine IMO

i cut the rubber tube down and reconected it. i say i wouldnt take a chance if it was leaking on something hot but i did have gas squirting god knows where when the hood was closed but i would be safer than sorry. i wouldnt have ran my car if i knew that that was happening i thought that it was my charcol filter.... oops but no fire all good

i would just replace the tube there shouldnt be a pressure leak there is not THAT much pressure going though there, go to autozone or where ever and get a new tube or if it long enough just cut off the end and reconnect it that is how i did it mine was leaking where the clamp was it cut it

Never ghetto-rig fuel lines! Do it right the first time and fix it properly, just replace the line.
