Strong gas smell 1st thing in AM
I have what I assume is a leaking rubber hose, I see the gas peeing out on the drivers side . A 3" hose after the fuel filter under all this stuff hooked to the fuel rail.
Question is: Can I change this with out taking the top of the engine all apart? Doesn't look like it to me, I can't even see the rear clamp. What is the process for this change?

Anything after the filter that goes to the fuel rail should be fairly easy to replace. But make sure you get fuel injection fuel hose and not vacuum hose! The oem Nissan hose is metric but there's a sae size that works just as well. You might want to take a short piece or note the mm size on the hose and convert it to the closest size. Also consider buying more than you need and replace some of the other lengths as they are probably hard/cracked too.

Help you fix it? Other than me going to your house, what more do you need to know. Take out old hose, install new overpriced hose. Not difficult
