Gas leak!!! Help

[Brian95_4r]

I have a 1995 6cyl 4runner, and I have a gas leak. It leaks no matter what, but it flows like a river if I fill it over half. Now I dont see it coming off the tank. On the passenger side frame rail, their is a line on the top back side of it, that is rusted quite a bit, is that a fuel line? because the gas seems to leak off the frame rail. I havent taken the tank off yet because I have no where to do it. Any insight will help. Where do you think it might be coming from?

I think you need to suck it up and drop the tank to find out where its REALLY coming from.

Its hard to find a leak over the internet.

Download the factory service manual located. Link in the stickies on top of the classics forum. Should tell you which line is which.

Don't mess with the gas leak, drop the tank, get it fixed. This can kill you.

What they said. Don't screw around with gas - rent a garage or hire a mechanic or whatever it takes.

Seriously. You are a driving death trap to you and others. As you drive you are spewing explosive fuel around.

That is also highly illegal in most areas, exactly because you will get someone killed.

Drop the tank. GO to autozone and buy 20 dollars worth of DOT rated fuel line. Buy a tube bender and a flare tool and just replace your line. It is super easy. Please do NOT keep driving around. That is insanely stupid and dangerous.
