Went to fire up my wagon this morning and ended up with fuel eveywhere. The car didn't want to start at first then finally did. Smelled fuel so I shut it down and popped the hood. (Unhooked battery) Noticed fuel leaking badly out of the fuel pressure regulator at the connection where the regulator gets fuel from the fuel rail. This regulator was replaced 50,000kms ago. Is there a gasket in there somewhere that has failed. I usually pull the small hose and smell for fuel as precautionary maintenance when under the hood. Do fuel rails ever crack? I've never replaced a regulator before myself but I willing to give it a go. Help
