Smells like fuel

Monochrome '05 · October 15th, 2008, 10:14 AM

Ok this is the issue:
I just put on a set of billet fuel rails along with all AN/Braided goodies. When I put on the A/C, Defrost or Vents I smell fuel. When I use the recirculate function it goes away. This lead me to believe that I had a leaky connection and that fuel vapor was coming in through the fresh air intake. This was not the issue every fitting and connection was bone dry, not so much as a drip.

So I appeal to all of you experts out there...Any ideas on this one?

why do you need billet fuel rails?

Just for looks. I got a deal that was too good to pass up.

Can't offer advise on how to find the leak, but sure hope you're not driving the car around.
