My wife contacted me this morning complaining the jeep wouldn't start. I walked to where she was and checked out the engine. I noticed fuel around the fuel filter mount; I bled the fuel system and the vehicle started. I got it home and check a little further and noticed fuel leaking out of the fuel heater plug. I unplugged it and a small amount of fuel dumped out. I took it to the local dealer and had them order the part. The technician said it's ok to drive the jeep until next week when the part arrives. *nm email update (6/25/2007): "...my replacement heater is overheating and leaking again."
