I got banned and I don't know why. Was it for this? Mod who banned please PM or email me if there's a problem.

I need some help! I'm worried a fire could start because my engine is spraying fuel all over the engine bay!

Gas is meant to be combusted inside the engine. If not, get it repaired.

Is it me or does this not belong in the Hardcore Section?

SORRY!! I'm new here, I guess I didn't see the link to the SOFTCORE technical thread. And this is a hardcore problem, if my car starts on fire it might explode.

that's why you take it to a shop and get it fixed first thing in the morning ....

dont do gas related jobs on your own cause if the car blows up, you'll cry....

if mechanic blows it up , shop pays you mad $$$'s after you sew them
