exhaust/fuel smell

[Omega]

Fuel smell > Coming from fuel feed line into the underside of the inlet manifold on petrol engine. Difficult to see and reach but replacement pipe fixed it (and the fuel economy).

May be the same setup on the diesel, but be careful messing with the pipes as the fuel pressure is much, much greater in diesels than petrol

OK. I'll take a look. Someone said before I bought the car that the rubber fuel line was beginning to dry rot. Maybe there is a spot near where you're talking about that is actually leaking a little. Have a petrol car. I assume the pipe you're refering to is the rubber fuel line and not a metal piece?

Thanks.
