Hi all. Need some help here.
I have been noticing some fuel smell in the engine bay. I noticed that there is leak of some sort as per the picture. What part is leaking here? And, what part is this? Sorry - I'm not mechanically inclined. Appreciate any guidance. Thank you!   |

If this is the first time it's been out in a while ie: springtime, be sure to check the tins under the injectors. The seals can dry out over the winter if it's been in storage and if they're leaking it'll pool/collect right there. First few times I have mine out in the spring, I start it and let it sit in the drive (not in the garage) for a few minutes and put an eye on that area making sure no injector/injector seal leaks.
