QUESTION: he said it is the fuel line assmely,  I had the problem when I lived in PA my auto repair man there didn't have a problem fixing it .  It is the fuel line that runs under the car on the drivers side.

Answer
Madeline,
The problem you have is that many shops won't do a patch type repair on a fuel system like yours due to a huge liability issue. Also, it's basically illegal to modify the fuel system since once you do, in the eyes of the US Government, it must be re-tested and re-certified to meet their regulations. So, getting the work done without using factory replacement parts may be a sticky proposition. Have you tried doing searches online for the part yourself?
