1 Fuel Hoses Lines/piping And Fittings problem

Failure Date: 01/20/2012

2000 Toyota Tundra limited access cab 4wd trd. Fuel line link detected after short trip. Excessive fuel pouring from driver side rear door of extended cab. Leaked was slowed when gas cap was removed. Leaked continued at a much slower pace as due to lower pressure in pressurized fuel line. Leak was limited to the cab area only. Frame was recently replaced in recall campaign. Much of the underbody components - leaf spring, axle, springs, brake covers, etc. - are deteriorating due to rust. These components were not covered under the frame recall. Fuel line appeared to have rust but could not detect perforation and could not determine actual location of leak. Car brought to dealer for repair with an estimate of $850 to replace fuel lines.
