Gasilone Leakage In Engine
« on: April 06, 2010, 04:53:05 pm »
Any Fix or should i scrap it?
Seems to leak slowly when engine is on. Its basically pushing out the gas out of the engine and leaking along the engine but its not leaking too much. Also the seems around the engine seem to be melting of old age, its got 221,000 km on the engine so i think its about done.

Im thinking of scrapping the engine if the repair is high.

Suggestions?

Btw, its a 1995 Talon FWD non turbo

Is the fuel rail leaking or the injectors? Should be a easy fix.

A 95 NT is not worth the time if it is a major problem but it you are not about the turbo scene or extra power and its nothing major then why not? Is it actually coming from the engine or engine area? Have you recently replaced the fuel filter? Might want to see if that is leaking.

Is this a temporary car or planned project car?

I would guess it's either your fuel injector seals or your fuel pressure regulator.  (Could be other things, but both of those seem like likely candidates.)  Definitely get it fixed, it really should be a cheap fix and a definite must if you don't want your car to burn to the ground.
