There is a slight drip that stops after driving around the fuel filter, which is located at the outside bottom beneath the passenger rear.
Rusty lines under there. So along your idea, since the pump won't be running, I'll check with Advanced or NAPA and see if they have FI hose. It's dry under there right now with the car sitting.
I'll also have to see how far I can get the car up safely to work under there.
Thanks for all the information everyone.
