    As the title states I have another fuel leak on my 03 WRX it is under where the A/C compressor used to be so i hadnt noticed it before. I have tried changing the clamps out. It mainly leaks under low pressure(start up, and idle) I have pics below please help I need it fixed fast and i was wondering if there is an easy way to fix it other wise i will bring it in to Subaru... If i bring it into Subaru does anyone have a guess on how much it will cost me?

    Tighten the clamps or replace the hose. Also you mean Compressor. Did you take the A/c off the car?

    What he said. I'd replace the hose. Otherwise it will only get worse as the temps drop.

    Hey don't get me wrong I use to think that was cool. My first Camaro had no heat or a/c, a huge cowl hood, and tall rear gears. Plus it was my daily driver. I thought it was cool. Then I got tired of it. Now I have the suby.

    Some advice. Run as tall of tire that you can. I can only run a 26 inch tall tire and I think its going to hurt me.
