Probably leaking in the valley and draining. There is a drain on the rear passengers side of the valley. Dry up the valley with paper towels (using a long screwdriver) and then check for leaks around the fuel filter housing & sensor, hoses and fuel pump (small weep hole on the bottom of pump). Let us know what you find.

Like plowhand said, check valley. Hate to say it but that's where mine was leaking and it was fuel pump. Not a big deal fix though we can walk you through it

If your leak is coming from the banjo bolt area, how do you fix it?
