Hey guys, well im pretty p****d that after getting my alarm/starter put on my 98 sunfire gt, i notice a strong gas smell. I look under the car and see gas dripping just behind the drivers door. Im assuming its a fuel/return line....if it is, is there anyway to temporarily patch it? i did a search but didnt come up with much. Ill be looking to find exactly where the leak is in the morning and need it fixed by the afternoon to get to work....and im not spending like 600$ at the dealer. Suggestions? Of course if something else is the cause then im pretty sc****d.

You could always go to youre local auto parts store get a rubber fuel line& clamps, Then just cut youre old fuel line add the rubber fuel line in its place. My friend had to do this on his 18hr road trip, He was lucky that had worked for him on his Cavalier.

Good Luck

Keep us updated.

ok what do i use to cut the line? a hacksaw or something? and what kind of rubber fuel line do i need? like size and all?
