Hey,
I just bought my first dsm. I bought a 90 Eclipse GSX and its been great so far. That is until today. I was driving home from work and the tank was leaking fuel like crazy. When I was filling it up the night before I got like 10 gallons in the tanks and then all of the sudden fuel came gushing out from underneath the car. When I talked to the guy I bought it from he said he never filled the tank above half full. I didnt know this last night and tried to fill it all the way up. It has 550 injectors and a 255 fuel pump. But im pretty sure its still running on the stock rails and regulators. Any suggestions on what to look at and how to fix this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone.

when i looked at it earlier it seemed to be coming from the back left corner of the tank. By where the line from the gas neck comes into the tank. It seemed to me like the top half and the bottom half of the tank were seperated there, but i dont know how its supposed to look in its original form. I read another thread with a guy that had a simiar issue, but it never seemed to have a clear answer.
