Cadillac CTS4
Ryan:
Do you ever wonder how people live with just 1 newer car that only needs oil changes and gas? ;D
mr.mindless:
I do wonder how that is...
The thread for that discussion happens to be Sarah's TDI. That'll be out of daily production real soon, if not already. It's a source of friction at the moment.
mr.mindless:
This thing is fuel stinking up the garage.
No gas drip visible anywhere underneath.
Has to be weeping somewhere and leaving a wet spot somewhere. An oil pan of gasoline smells about as much as this does. It can’t be an evap leak unless something is putting gas into the charcoal canister and it runs a purge on shutdown.
It’s always gotta be something.
mr.mindless:
Found the drip. Rotten steel fuel lines up against side of tank. Broke in more places at clamps as I touched them.
Replaced with rubber 50psi working pressure fuel injection line from the plastic at the tank to up front where the rust stopped.
Should probably do the trans cooler lines that look equally crunchy, and send this thing. Domestics suck. Aluminized steel fuel lines? Cmon. At least the brake lines still look good. Hopefully they aren’t about to fall apart right at the nuts like they always seem to.
Smike, do you have male to nipple for these quick connects when you’re re plumbing things? I keep the females in stock but I ended up having to just cut these off and clamp over the nylon line. Extremely tight fit and pushed over far enough to double clamp so I’m comfortable with it but unhappy I had to do that. Just didn’t have the right stuff in stock or leftovers.
M4wdFab:
i dont think i have any male ones that would be use full. usually i just replace the whole line tank to fuel rail with two new females.
