My 86 is leaking gas pretty bad. I found the leak, and it’s right under the air box. There are two metal fuel lines with rubber hoses. One of the hoses broke off and I tried jamming the rubber hose over the metal nipple part, but the pressure is so great, gas still sprays out everywhere. I have to get this fixed before I do anything. Lee (a friend) told me that there are some snap things that broke off that hold the rubber part to the metal part and I need to replace the fuel line? I forget, I had been drinking. Anyone know what I’m talking about? If so, do you have an idea what part I need to replace? I can go look at my car this weekend and snap pics of what part is leaking if needs be.

Have you stopped the leak? Hit the grey button on the black box behind the driverside tail light dude!
