gas leak?

[titan81]

Last sunday I noticed a small puddle maybe 1/2 cup of gas under neath
where the fuel pump is. After looking at it mulitple times I determined its not the lower lines, and its running down the pump itself. I have a new pump, but the seems to be no problem starting or moving, out and in garage.
So it doesnt really sound like the pump is not working, just leaking?
Anyone else have this happen, all in all its lost maybe 1-2cups of fuel.
Stop leaking wed/thur?
Could it be a fuel line or connection.

I would check to make sure that the lines are tight on the fuel pump,if they are then i would check the around the pump to make sure its not leaking...

you might want to put it up on a set of ramps,so you can check underneath while it is running...if you do this BE CAREFUL!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!

It might well be one of the fuel lines, BUT....I have seen the fuel pumps leak around the diaphram when the rubber begins to fail. I would be very concerned if this is the case. When this happens it is not uncommon for gasoline to leak through into the engine block and mix with the oil. Check your dipstick for high level or a strong smell of fuel.
