Too many leaks to keep up with
All in the same month
1. radiator inlet for trans cooler < fixed (thank you jb weld) 2. radiator connection from the heater core < fixed (thank you jb weld) 3. heater core leaking bad < fixed by capping off at the intake and radiator and will replace heater core at some point 4. fuel pump connection from tank to fuel pump < fixed 5. fuel pump connection from fuel pump to carb < fixed (I think) < replaced fuel pump 6. I need ya'lls help on this one: I'm getting what appears to be fuel (it smells a little like fuel) splashed on the passenger side inner fender. I can't seam to isolate where the leak is coming from. How's the fuel getting all the way up there? Also my new fuel pump has a return line that I just capped off, is there any problem with that?

Re: Too many leaks to keep up with
You could just toss a lit match to it to know for sure if it is gas or not...lol.

Re: Too many leaks to keep up with
 I don't think I'd be wasting any time finding the source, either. It may be that the match that someone else mentioned is one that ignites the fuel while your driving.....not a good event, unless it's chicken.

Re: Too many leaks to keep up with
My guess is the fuel pump. Run engine and check the lower part of fuel pump leaking.
