fd rx7 leaking gas
 
My 93 rx7 started leaking gas from the engine bay 2 days ago. It only leaks when the engine is cold, when i start the car it starts leaking, when I let it idle for a minute and turn it off and then turn it back on it stops leaking. I'm not sure if its gas but its clear and flamable. Is this something i should me worried about? Sorry for my bad English. Thanks

Not to sound rude,but if you think that a gas leak is nothing to worry about,then would you be interested in buying a parachute?..used once,never opened.
You are playing with your life.It is a fireball waiting to get lit.
Find the gas leak.Do not drive the car...and IF the car is in a garage attached to the house.PUSH IT OUTSIDE,..away from the house.

I been researching and I think its the fuel pulsation damper.

There are also hi-pressure fuel hoses and injectors to suspect. Although if you're in there that far, I'd consider replacing or eliminating the FPD while your at it....even if it's not the culprit.

I got the problem fixed, my mechanic replaced the fuel rail and the fuel pulsation damper. Thanks for the help.

good to hear it wasnt serious. I was going to suggest to make sure you open all the windows and doors before working on it but no need now
