Gas on top of gas tank
 

Been smelling gas so googled and pulled battery tray to check fuel pressure sensor.
What I found was a quarter inch puddle
Of gas’s on top of the tank.
Trying to post a picture .
The sensor that typically leaks is to the back left of the circle that’s holding the gas.
An ideas?
I tried running jumper cables from battery to car and crank so I could see the leak but the car won’t crank on jumper cables.

NOTHING should be leaking fuel, anywhere. Fuel leaks are recipe for disaster..................

Running jumper cable near a puddle of gas... :eek:

Dried gas up first , hooked pumpers to car then to the battery 6 ft away.😁

Does not matter if you hook the jumpers to the car first or not... or how far way the other battery is. You can still get arcing (spark) at the car end. All it needs is sufficient resistance at the connection.
That can happen from something as simple as a oxidized battery post or jumper cable connector.

The safest thing to do is to find a chassis ground for your negative cable as far away as possible from the fuel source.
Then Hook up your negative cable last.
That way if you do get arc (spark) your not right at the fuel source.
