I have put new fuel lines on and they are starting to leak again. How do I get these from stopping to leak. It isn't like it is alot but it is making a mess out of my garage floor and I am wasting fuel. Does anyone have an answer to this problem?

fuel return shoudn't have pressure.

maybe it is leaking from somewhere else.

well Looking at it while the car is running it seems to me that is where it is coming from. I am not sure if they are just old and starting to crack or what but should I be looking at something else?

Thanks

Eddie

Oh I hope that you have a great weekend.
