I have a guy coming to look at the GT in the morning, so this afternoon I went out and started it for the first time since I put her away last fall. As always she started on the first crank, blew the moisture out of the pipes and started to puuuurrrr like a kitten, so I shut her down and went inside for a drink, turned around to look at her and there is this puddle of gas underneath the fuel pump! :(

I'm just going to mention it to the guy in the morning, she still runs, and is most likly a banjo fitting or a little bit of overflow from the tank but I'm NOT spending the night trying to fix it. But I WILL point it out to the guy.

Guess the MG could be so scared of me selling her she peed herself???? :)

Well, that's a bad omen. You can't sell her now.

unless the guy is MG knowledgeable, this could become a deal killer at the negotiated price.

could be cheaper for you to fix it.

-$500, even if it turns out to be a $0.50 problem.

Yep. I guess you can't NOT point it out to him, but Murphy sure wants to kick you around some....
