This one has a happy ending.   Had taken the van on a 3500+ mile
camping trip in early january during that super cold snap.  Ran
pretty good.   Last week, took it on a shopping trip, which started
out with me thinking "all my tools are in the garage, i should
probably bring some along" but of course I didn't.  What could
possibly go wrong?    Got to Frys and noticed a new puddle when I
pulled into the parking lot.   Turned out to be gasoline leaking from
a fuel hose which had worn through from rubbing on the injector
connector.  The hose was routed incorrectly AND missing the plastic
covering sheath, due to the #$*#!$@ mechanic not bothering or
something.   Fortunately, I had some hose in the van, but no tools.
Got in line to purchase a nut driver set, then I realized I'd
forgotten my wallet.   Was able to scrape together about $15 in
change to buy the tools and fixed it in the parking lot.

This hose was the right kind of high pressure FI hose, brand new, and
failed after about 4000 miles due to friction.   Given that the hole
was right at the electrical connector for the injector #1, I think
I'm damn lucky it didn't catch fire.      Does anyone make metal or
other super high strength replacement hose?
