fuel lines

Had a '96 PS and noticed cracks in fuel lines feeding the fuel canister. Could be leaks. Get a flash light and check all the lines on top the engine behind the fuel canister. It takes a while for diesel to evaporate so if you spill fuel down onto the manifold when changing the filter, it will pool on top the manifold. The area where you saw it running down is where it would come out. There is a low spot on the intake manifold at the rear of it to allow for drainage.
