Fuel leak by model year
What owners say
Found a gasoline leak at the quick connect fitting where the fuel line meets the fuel rail on top rear of engine. I believe its the fuel return line. The quick connect fitting is leaking fuel down onto engine and could drip onto hot exhaust manifold causing a fire. Car was stationary when I noticed the leak. I smelled gas first then traced the smell to the leaking quick connect fitting. This may be related to the recent gm recall of valve covers leaking oil causing the fires.
The steering wheel seems to becoming loose, afraid to drive vehicle car shut off while driving , had to pull over and restart car. Small fuel leak in fuel tank. Updated 4/24/2015
Fuel leaks from the hose that connects to the fuel injector pressure regulator on my 2003 chevrolet impala from time to time with no regular schedule. I am afraid that at some time a fire could result from this leakage. Sometimes this happens at start up and then at other times for reason at all. It is a small amount of leakage. When I detect the smell,I stop and push down on the hose where it connects to the pressure regulator and it seems to stop the smell and the leak.
Fuel system ,gasoline delivery : fuel pressure regulator was leaking, on my 2003 chevrolet impala ,3.4 liter engine. The car has 41000 miles on it. This may be the same problem as the federal safety agency campaign id 04v090000 which involved a recall of 2000 chevrolet impalas with the 3.8 liter engine for leaking fuel regulator.
