[DML] Gas leak from the accumulator hole area

["yenitz" <charliebritt@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey all,

I've got a small gas leak is coming from underneath the center of the vehicle, and the best I can tell, coming out of the cubby hole area where the accumulator is mounted.

However, after running the car and letting it leak, I jacked it up, slid underneath with a flashlight, and all the lines in and out of the accumulator are dry.  I dont see any noticeable gas at any of the connectors to and from the accumulator.

But, there is a metal line that is visible closer to the opening of the hole that appears to be leaking something... but when I rub my gloves and paper towel over it, it appears to be oil.   The puddle on the ground is definitely gas though.  I think we all are familiar with the 87 octane that is engrained in our lungs.

Anyone know what this steel line is hanging below the accumulator?  And is it a common leak point?  Sorry for the elementary questions... but trying to look up the diagrams has been a built difficult for me on this holiday weekend.

Regards,
Charlie
