I had sugar poured into my gas tank. I have cleaned my fuel system and fuel injectors properly. After reassebling the fuel system on my 2000 Buick Century, I now have fuel pouring out when I start or try fueling my vechile. It is pouring out by the rear driver side wheel. I have replace my sending unit and I am still having the same problem. I have exhausted all my possibilities. Please help. Thanks

at your wheel either under or on top the rear axel is normally your fuel filter there are 2 plastic retainer clips or screw fittings most likely te fuel filter is either not tight or does not have the proper seals installed or if you have the plastic retainers there not installed correctly or as most people break them when replacing fuel filter and do not replace them when reinstalling the filter its a 8 to 15 dollor fix go buy a new fuel filter and it comes with the new seals and retainers that is one of the only places near the rear wheel that would be leaking

First, replace the gas clean out. 2d, take a gas stress studying from the gas stress installation on the gas rail beside the gas injector nozzles. once you've shrink than 40 psi you want a clean electric powered gas pump. Plugged gas filters damage more beneficial electric powered gas pumps than the diverse reason. you receives a pretend gas stress studying at the same time as the gas clean out is partly plugged. do now no longer purchase an expensive gas pump until eventually eventually ultimately the strain is examined first.

the seal at the sending unit to tank isn't seated correctly and when you add fuel it pours out...
you have to pull the tank and correct it... then put it back.. I had it happen once back in 97 on a mid 80's Camaro...
so it can even happen to the best of us... go back take your time get it right its worth it...
sorry I had to tell you the bad news...

Sounds to me you have a loose hose connection. Which side is your gas cap on? Is your sending unit fully seated? Its something simple. Take the time to check every connection leading from the tank. Did you change the fuel filter????

Sounds like your fuel return line is disconnected.
