Bad gas leak in '84Runner-

Destro

New member
Greetings all. First post here, had my '84 trail rig for 3 years now and it has been flawless since I got it until a few weeks ago. Started smelling gas so I took out the Jeep instead (4 Runner is not plated, so it only goes on local trails towed to get there).

Leaking from the front of the carb- have to look into it to get a better idea of what to do.

My other question is how much fender trimming is required to fit 35X12.5 tires. I have a set I am getting in a trade and thinking they will wake up the 4Runner. I am currently running 265/85R15s (= 30.5X9.8 tire).

I am in the midwest and the beast has a lot of rust on all four fenders. I figure cutting it all out to clear bigger tires will help it look better and do better off road.

If you're stock suspension, it'll take a lot of cutting to fit 35's.
Leak could be a dried out/bad gasket, hose, or a diaphragm in the carb. Or at the fuel pump which is right up front there.
