Major fuel leak, please help

i recently taken out my injectors to be cleaned and tested, and i also have the battery unplugged since i did all that.. im uploading a video to youtube as i type this showing you what my problem is,

around the fuel rail seems dry, but im not sure whats going on here. leaking it seems from around the turbos.. i haven't touched the fuel lines or non that i know of, only the injectors themselves.

sorry if i seemed out of breath in the video, i was going back n forth above and beneath the car, along with running upstairs to grab the camera

its still uploading to youtube, i am going to post the link when its done

ok i figured it out, i am an idiot and forgot to release the pressurize from the gas tank. it hit me after this finished uploading, i opened the gas tank cap and heard it. after 3 mins it slowed and stopped.. i am still not sure where it was coming from tho, or why it waits till the second day to start leaking


here just gotta wait for it to be approved. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPumD32gSZE

Nothing personal bud, but here's some help for you:

Consider having a qualified shop work on your car before you hurt yourself or damage the car.

It's tough love. The truth hurts, but......
