check your fuel lines for leaks
« on: May 25, 2020, 16:06:10 »
so i took the 230 out for a quick drive this morning,  perfect weather nice and cool.

anyway, got home , pulled the car into the garage and smelled fuel.....

looked under the hood, i saw liquid but it was hard to find the leak so i started up the car.

turns out the line going from the fuel damper to the inj pump was spraying fuel out of a pin hole....

this line is at least 16 years old, i remember replacing it in 2004 - 5
