Ok so I own a h22 prelude and over the winter I changed some things and now have a fuel leak. I installed a skunk2 Intake manifold, AEM fuel rail and fpr. now when i go to start it it cranks over and pisses fuel. I jacked the car up and a plastic piece is blocking where its coming from so I took it off and find a line that’s not attached to anything. The car ran this way before so I’m confused and need help. ---

Basically, he has the line running from the tank to the fuel filter then to the fuel rail, like it should be, it’s the return line that sounds like its pissing gas everywhere… ---

But that doesn’t make sense because if the fuel rail is getting gas then the car should start. One of these lines has to be backwards. Aaron did you try turning the key on so the fuel pump comes on and see if the line to the rail is squirting gas? ---
