I started my car and backed out of the garage onto the street and promptly turned off the car because I smelled fuel and saw a trail when I looked from where I came. Popped the hood and saw fuel in the engine V; had a friend come over, cranked the engine then we saw it was the driver's side injector closest to the firewall.. So today we'll pull the throttle body out of the way and install another boot. I'm gald it happened at home and on my day off.
The rubber boots with a temp range of -35F to +190F were replaced with an aluminum cup; works great see the twin screw thread.

Rick;
You too huh?
Backing my one Jeep GC up the driveway this morning I noticed about 2 gallons of fuel pooled on the ground. Looked underneath and gas just spewing everywhere. Jeep had been sitting for about 3 weeks and I bet the chipmunks were having a field day while I was away.
