Fuel Leaking OMG!!!?

Ok so I looked under my car this morning and I had a huge black pool on the underside of course I jumped below and found out it was a loose oil pan plug so that was fixed easy.. Now this is where it went downhill . I notice a lil leak every couple of secs and then I caught one and smelt it .... IT WAS GAS mixed with mmo which is what i premix with. And then it started leaking toward the end of the exhaust and then I was like OH MY! I also checked the PD which is dry as a baby. But I cannot figure where the premix fuel is leaking from. The drops are coming from in between the trans and the motor right above the header ? Dunno where it could be trailing from. Any help ?

if you can't see anything. your'll probably have to pull the under intake manifold off and check the rails and lines.

DO NOT DRIVE THE CAR till you fix it.

I recently(two days ago) replaced the Primary and secondary injector grommets and O-Rings.
It solved my "gas high" problem which I have had since summer.

The primary grommets do get alot more crispy than the secondarys as they are right above the actual heatsource.

That Rabbit looks like the one I got my GF. Dutch Dwarf?

What you are experiencing Is what I had a short while ago. But In my case, my shortlived, just ultra sonically cleaned, FI's (actually, It was the rear secondary) failed In the open position. Some fuel made It's way down the exhaust and out the tips. This was with new Upper/Lower Grommets and O-Rings.

Fwiw, turn the Ign on when/If you find yourself taking the UIM off.
