Started my car and backed it out of my garage to let it idle/warm up. I usually pump it twice, start it, put it in reverse and it backs without me having to push on the gas pedal.
It usually idles high so I give it a light tap to kick the idle down. I did all this today and then smelled gas. I turned the car off, popped the hood and this is what I found. Pools of gas on either side of the manifold, mostly on the passenger side. All of this happened in less than three minutes.
I had the intake manifold and carburetor installed last June and have had an occasional pop/backfire if I try to step on the gas too quickly but never any gas leaks. 99% of the time the car has run great.
If any anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate the help. Thanks
