This is my mother's well-kept from brand new car. I am a few hundred miles from it and relying on her neighbor for info. I'm hoping to use the info obtained here to travel there and make the repair in one trip! The neighbor says that it is leaking/ seep fuel from a fuel line that enters the throttle body. I have no idea if this is a pressure line or a return? Is it possible that you can show me multiple pics of the fuel lines in that vicinity, what they are made of, and any helpful installation tips? Thank you, CJ MEDEVAC

Hey CJ how have you been? This is a simple fuel line at the TBI fuel injector. Should be easy to fix, it probably needs O rings. Here is the information we have. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see what to help you with.
