2007 saturn ion leaks gas only when running, has trouble starting up..must turn over key and wait few seconds then starts right up and leak is coming from the front
This is dangerous and should be repaired as soon as possible to prevent a fire. The most likely cause is a bad seal or o-ring on the fuel line quick disconnect. Or, if it's not a quick disconnect, you might want to check the link below. The pic below shows the clip (#3) that holds the injectors to the rail and the upper o-ring (#4) that can leak. The leak could also be on of the o-rings where the injectors attach to the fuel rakl on top of the engine.

I am looking to replace a leaking fuel injector rail for 1993 fifth ave chrysler new yorker p/n 4554109
The rail is most likely not the problem, the fuel injector "O" ring seals are likely the problem in the rail.

Jingling sound from front of engine
Don't worry about the sound, Find the gas leak. Fuel lines come in on the drivers side. Then you have the injectors. on the fuel rail. on the fuel rail there is a pressure regulator. All this needs checked. Fuel lines on the engine are metal. BUT coming up to the metal lines, they are plastic. LOOK for wet spots.. FIX them. The regulator is on the fuel rail/ with the injectors. LOOK for wet spot at these locations also... There are also other locations under the car to find gas leaks....Fix this first...

1993 dodge dinesty 3.4 fuel rail leaks how can i repair
If the metal fuel rail itself has a leak, it should be replaced. If it is leaking by an injector, the O-rings on the injectors need to be checked and probably replaced. If a fuel line to the rail is leaking, that will have to be repaired. There will be two fuel lines at the rail, the feed line in from the gas tank, and a return line from the rail back to the tank. If there is a pressure regulator on the fuel rail (it will have a short vacuum line hose to it), the regulator may also have an o-ring to keep from leaking where it mounts.

Gas line leaking by engine how do repair that?
Where is it leaking? If its at the fuel rail fuel pressure regulator you may need a new regulator if leaking on the metal part. If its leaking at the rail side its just the "O" ring. Relieve fuel pressure(push in valve under plastic cap right side beside alternator on rail. Remove the torx screw holding regulator bracket. Pry out and replace "O" ring, reassemble. If its not the regulator it may be a fuel injector, you need to remove the fuel rail and replace both the upper and lower injector "O" rings. This however needs the intake manifold removed to repair.

Gas Leak under Hood on 2004 Aviator
It can only be a small area. Does it seem to be coming from the fuel rail area, which is usually chrome color. The fuel pressure regulator or fuel line. The fuel line come up the driver side firewall connects to a regulator, and then feeds into the fuel rail. Any of these connections could be the leaking source. Also one of the rubber o rings for the injector could be leaking. Look to see where it mostly looks to be coming from and feel around the pipes for the gas.

Have a fuel leak under front of car
I would trace fuel lines from tank to fuel rail on motor. These are high pressure lines so do not try to quick-fix them. You will have to measure the lines and replace them if they are leaking. Unless the fuel is leaking from lines by fuel rail or by fuel filter.
