My car is leaking gas only when running..my guess is a pressurized fuel line. It is located under driver's passenger side near gas tank.Next to frame rail. I have had this car for 6 years without any problems. Please tell me some good,cheap news, as this car will be driven by my daughter soon.

There are rubber lines that connect to steel lines, but you will most likely have to drop tank to get to them.

Glad to hear it was simple, but really, 6 years for a filter change? :) .
