My car has been up on jack stands for about 5 months now, and i went to work under it again and noticed it was leaking something. I had noticed earlier when i was working in the garage that it smelled like gas all of the sudden. I figured it was one of my neighbors doing something, because i didnt have any open gas lying around.

There are 3 lines going to/from my fpr. First one is blue and goes towards the engine. second 2 are smaller
I will get some pics up asap of where the leak is coming from. The line that goes into the bottom of the fpr is the one that is leaking the gas.

Its not a small drip either, its streaming down the control arm. Battery is disconnected.

I found this under the car, and i have never seen it before.

Im trying to post pics. its a 14 mm bolt with a gold colored thread. about 3/4 " long. There is a hole that goes straight throug the shoulder area. Thread is about .5". Threaded area also has a hole, cant see how far it goes.

That is not the banjo bolt that goes on top of the fuel filter. 5sfe's use M12 - 1.25 thread pitch and the hole that goes through the banjo bolt looks way to small compared to the stock one. Just look at the filter to see if the banjo bolt is there or not. wink.gif
