Quick Question for my 79SC911 LEAK
My 911 has had a lot of work done to get rei of all the annoying leaks. After summer was over there were no leaks, but now as it sits in the garage it has definitely started leaking. What is weird is the leak is coming from underneath the middle of the car. Basically right under the gear shifting area. I am wondering what could be leaking there? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Only fluids in that general area are gasoline and brake fluid.
Definitely not anti-freeze. Could also be that coke you spilled in the console.

Do you have a cat?
Again, the smell test will work. |
