Gas leak '97 ES300
I have a gas leak (a little wet area and a very strong smell) at the rear of the engine. I think it may be one of the fuel injectors, but I can't see all of them and the one closest (on the left) seems to be dry (I popped off the cover, but the smell is coming from waay in the back)
Questions:
1. Has anyone experienced this problem, and if so, what caused it?
2. How much $/time one can expect to spend to repair it (or the degree of difficulty: 1-10?
3. This is the only car I have, so what precautions I should take while starting/driving it, before the repair? I intend to air it our and the garage prior to starting, at the very least.
I've read somewhere that there might be a valve on the fuel line/manifold somewhere. If it's easy to replace, I'm all ears, since I don't want to pay for a new fuel injection manifold.
Thanks a lot!
