That's where will be looking first. But regardless where it's leaking from, the weird part is that the leak simply went away. Today I drove it again and it was fine. No one can explain it...
Your car year is one with the fuel filter on the under side of the car.
You can remove all the under body panels then just turn the key to the on position.
The fuel pump will run and pressurize the system....no need to start it.
Then you can go over the system and check for leaks.
Use a flash light and look for fuel stains on the under side of the car and the body panels.
The fuel system is under pressure when running so fuel can spray out when there is a leak.
Even if it is no longer leaking perhaps you can identify where it was leaking.
Let us know what you find.
