Fuel Leak Under Car

Austin Davis, October 28, 2006September 27, 2014

My car is leaking gas, right where my fuel filter is located. I was wondering if it would be safe to drive until I can get it fixed? Thanks,
Lauren

Hi There Lauren

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Never drive a vehicle that is leaking raw fuel. Hopefully it is just a defective fuel filter, but get it fixed ASAP, maybe even have it towed if you think it is leaking that fast. The exhaust system which is VERY hot, is also in that area as the fuel filter.

Blessings,
Austin Davis
