Default Gas Leak

Been smelling gas last few days. I took the car for a 30mile drive today, got home and had to go back out again. I went out to the audi I notice Gas smell and seen a pudle of gas under passenger front door. So I took alook under the car and I could see gas dripping from the under rail on the right side. I didnt jack the car up so not sure where it could be comeing from if anyone could help that would be great thanks.


Its a 1993 audi 100cs wagon

Default Check the connections on the fuel filter, which is mounted on the right side suspension tower....

in the engine compartment. A leaking connection (or even a leaking filter) could result in the fuel running down the fuel supply line before falling to the ground.

Default Re: Gas Leak

Just looked under the car looks like there are 3 lines runing from the back of the car to the front. They look alittle rusty and pitted still, kinda hard to tell witch one is leaking. I dont see any leak under the hood has to be something down under. I am loseing alot of gas
Has anyone ever had to replace gas lines because rusted out??
