he could be describing a pressurized leak charachteristic to certain fuel lines. i mean, there IS pressure in the fuel lines, and if there was a "pin-hole" sized tear in the line, the fuel would appear to bubble out like if you were to spray that bubbling liquid on a tire puncture....you get what i mean......i think that it got off subject a lilttle, and like justin said, DO NOT drive the car. there are too many hot spots for the gas to ignite under the hood, and if you understand the situation, you will heed the warning, and find the culprit.





and even though some think that the fan mod doesn't work, including me, it is a good idea to ground the blue wire with a green stripe on the fan relay under the hood. that will keep the fans on while the ignition is on. it worked for me, especially after i put in my FMIC. i had some warmer temps and now they are a thing of the past......

What if the pulsation damper was leaking. DO you replace the whole thing or just buy the o-rings?

How much is a new pulsation damper? And how bad does it leak?
