Leaky fuel rail?
Noticed fuel running down the inside of the support bracket on fuel rail near the # 3 cylinder. I have already done the injectors , checked for leaky connections, don't know what else it could be but maybe a cracked fuel rail? The only replacement rails I can find are the rebuilts on 944 online.com but they want $295. Any suggestions?

I have a leak free used one with dampner, PM for details.
Your other options are the lindsey racing unit or a modified new stock unit from speed force racing.

I've gone through this before... LOL...alot. Pelican members often have some used ones reasonable. Also you can sometimes silver solder it and cripple around a while. Just don't burn your car up driving it w/ a leaky rail. Such has been the demise of several 944's

Whatever you do though, dont go driving the car while it's leaking. Look under the fuel rail and you will see your exhaust manifold.....which gets hot....not a good combination.
I know!
