If you’re like most drivers, you probably take your car for granted. But like any machine, your car can break down. In fact, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), more than 10 million cars are in the United States with fuel leaks. That’s why it’s important to know how to find a fuel leak in a car. The first step is to check all of the hoses and connections on your car. Make sure there are no kinks or tears in them. If you notice any leaks, start by checking the fuel lines. They can be located under the car or inside the tank. If you find a leak, use a funnel to catch the gas and put it into a container for later inspection. If you can’t find a leak, your next step is to check for gas fumes coming from under the hood or around the engine area. If you smell gas, don’t drive your car until you’ve fixed the problem! ..
