On that note Chris--

I would ask; Looking at a smoldering smoking carcass of a Vanagon gutted by
fire with every rubber and plastic part formerly in the engine compartment
now melted into a bubbling puddle of guck under the Vanagon, how would one
know if it was the fuel line, fuel connection through the firewall, or fuel
rail that failed to become the cause of the fuel leak that started the fire?

I'm just saying. ;)

Best,
