HELP! Gas leak
I just started my car and smelled raw gasoline.... backed out the garage and there is a puddle of gas on the floor and looked under the car and can see gas leaking. What the hell??? Drove a bunch yesterday and no issues...
I popped the hood and found a small puddle in between the turbo inlet hose and throttle body
Fuuuuuuuuu

get a lighter so you can see where it is coming from
j/k bro is the puddle near the front or back of the car?
I had a car ketch on fire, you may not want to drive it.
sorry to hear your troubles

seriously, everyone should have one handy in their car, even if you don't think you have a fuel leak, but especially if you do!
