Beta Don Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Fuel doesn't leak from bolts . . . . but you should find where it is coming from and FOR SURE don't drive it until you've solved the leak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G B L Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 What year, if it is running down the engine then you need to check the fuel supply line the fuel rail and if it is old enough the fuel return line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said it's a 2008, which is old enough for every rubber piece in the fuel system to be suspect I would imagine Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G B L Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 He did, I missed the year. The 2014-2018 2.5 has a return-less fuel system and I am not sure what the gen one had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
