Help! Leaking gas
I just replaced my motor mounts and took the jeep for a ride. When I got back I smelled gas and noticed I have gas leaking from the line near my throttle body. I dont know what line it is so i attached a picture. i can hear air coming out. I'm not pro with fuel lines so I need help.

You have to replace that steel pipe.
There is another way.
Cut leaking pipe where it leaks, using brake line cutter. Buy piece of high pressure rubber fuel hose and high pressure clamps. Install hose and clamps where you cut pipe. Make sure rubber hose is not touching anything.
I don't know how to attach repaired pipe to manifolf, so this is not a good way to repair the leak.

What kind of cherokee is this? Grand or regular cherokee? And what year? I had to replace all my fuel lines and this doesn't look familiar.
