Hey guys. Day 4 or 5 with my new fd just wanted to get some ideas on what could be causes and if it's worth doing myself or if I'm just gonna cmscrew myself harder on this one. I can change belts brakes oil blah blah but seeing a my car could've easily caught on fire.. Wanted your opinion.

 

Can you tell which rail is leaking? If its the primary its only about a half hour of work to get the intake off to get to the rail. Maybe an oring on the injector got caught or folded. Or the rail isn't bolted down correctly.

 

Its on the left and leaking toward the front so primary?!

 

?*

 

i thought it might be your FPD but that's on the right side so it may be your banjo-bolt or that line.........

 

If its the line how hard is it to replace?

 

First we will have to translate this poorly written form of communication.
If you are just learning English or American, then you may be forgiven.

Either way, you ability to analyze a problem is very poor and thus you should sell the car or become rich to hire a mechanic.

 

Haha, thanks. Lol. Your advice is amazing. If I was an idiot I would've just dismissed it. I don't have any tools on me ATM so I can't really diagnose much and just wanted to see what you guys thought. The pulse dampener is on the right and it seems to come from either the hose or fitting. Not really sure. I mean I may not be an amazing mechanic but I dont see the need for you to like just dismiss me like an idiot lmao. I am not selling the car because I went through paying import tax here in pr and transportation . I know these cars are work, not even pissed off about it. Moving on.
So do you know what tool I'd need to remove the bolt to the fuel rail? As in what size . I have a guy who has 3 rotary powered vehicles who's como over later on but wanted to get some foresight to make it a bit easier

 

YOUR ability...


OP, good luck figuring this out.

 

Lol right? Yeah, might be a while depending. Really need access to a lift in general. The rest of the car is pretty spot on thankfully.

 

What is this American language? Is that like speaking Mexican?

 

There is a difference in average UK English and American English word usage.
The UK accents are the worst to understand than any American accents.
Don't you watch any BBC shows?

I'm betting that one day someone will actually post a write up on how to wash or vacuum your car.

 

Sure, I watch BBC shows. I also read BBC articles and there is little difference grammar-wise, just mainly nuances with the diction that does not detract from comprehension.

I was implying it would have been more accurate and concise to just state English. Accents aren't really relevant on message boards. If you want to bring in American English and UK English, you should also club in the many, many other English dialects out there.

Just poking some fun...

And was the wash/vacuum comment directed towards me?

 

Mon haffe speak Jamaican patois so me bredrin inna de ghetto can overstand.

or..

Ho Brah, Haole nevah try talk da kine Hawaiian pidjin li 'dat?

 

try using proper locations, like toward the front of the car/engine and driver or passenger side under the intake. if you can define locations like primary rail, secondary rail, fuel feed line, fuel crossover line, fuel return line, injector area, etc it would help greatly.

problem is, it is a leak. it can be from anywhere. you need to dry it off and figure out exactly where it is coming from on your own, take a picture of that spot and then ask for recommendations on how to go about fixing/diagnosing it.


basically if someone came in and said they had an oil leak and needed help fixing it without giving any idea of where the leak was coming from, no one can help you whatsoever. time to pick up the service manual and get your hands dirty.

 

Well been doing that. It's from the hose or fitting that connects to the fuel rail. What I wanna know is how far that hose goes

 

there is 2 hoses attached to the rail, and we're still assuming you are referring to the secondary rail on the upper passenger side. if it is the front hose that is a loop line to the primary rail, it is only about 4-5 inches long. try tightening the line to the rail, it may just be loose.

 

Just replaced all three of the fuel lines there -- cost was something like $140 for all 3.
They do wear out.

 

Where did you get the lines? I got tools in the morning. As much tools as a 350z worth actually.

 

It'd kn the passenger side aj.

 

A description of your setup would probably help greatly. You mention in the Title of the thread that it is a KG rail. So does your car have braided lines running from the fuel feed and return lines on the firewall?

A picture would be helpfull and at this point the car isnt gonna be driven to a shop so tearing into it isnt going to hurt anything, so dig on in.

 

Nope oem style. Im going braided today. Atleast for the one that goes connects to the motor which is the feed
