This morning while driving my daughter to school, our
'88 Westy developed a major fuel leak just as I pulled
into the parking lot. I smelled gas, and saw a trail of fuel
where I backed up. It does not leak with the key on,
engine stopped, only when the engine running, but then
pours out and drips from several places on transmission.
I assume this means there is a high pressure line
leading from one side of the engine to the other, or
perhaps a "T" above the transmission? I would have
expected it to leak as soon as I turned the key and the
fuel pump made pressure, but it doesn't seem to start
until the engine is running.

My question is: how many different sizes of hose are
used in the fuel system from the fuel pump back to the
injectors? I bought some hose a few years ago to
replace the injector lines and found it was the wrong
size, so I never did it. I guess now is the time to replace
them all...

ps: Please cc: <swright@sls.bc.ca> if possible, as I
won't be able to check my list mail until tonight, and
need to rescue my van asap! (It's only 5 minutes from
home, but has no vent window, and it might rain...)

Thanks!
