the other day i noticed that there was a HUGE puddle of something under where i park my car on the stones in my driveway. i thought nothing of it considering my fluids all were fine and not losing anything. a few times (like the 14th when i went to paragon) the jeep would take 5 minutes of solid cranking to start. nothing helped it turn over; like pumping the gas or anything. eventually it happened every time i tried to start it (3 times consecutively) before i popped the hood and took another look. the next time it started right up; and it had me completely confused.
so, i pop the hood, right, and look around. i whack the throttle and immediately release it. it revs all the way up to about 4 or 5k and back down. i repeat this a few times; and eventually i noticed a drip. i look at the fuel rail and keep revving it. fuel is dripping out the big fuel inlet line onto the intake manifold! lol... looks like something snagged this line sometime between installing my lift and taking it to paragon; but it just needed to be clicked back in. now it starts every time, and already i notice at least a 5mpg increase! lol
