Hey guys!
So my fuel economy has been terrible (like 5mpg) and with gas prices soaring, I decided to add UV dye to my tank to see if there's a leak somewhere. Well I found one. It's right behind the engine, pics attached.
So what am I looking at for a repair here? Am I going to have to pull out the motor? Any and all advice welcomed (except buy a diff car cuz im broke as f*** dumping $150ish in the damn tank per week).
