Hello, my name is \*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\* thank you for using just answer. The site will prompt a phone call, but that is not always necessary. If it is necessary later in the conversation, I will propose it. I am sorry you are having this concern, but I will do my best to assist you. Fuel leaks are a safety hazard, and should be repaired immediately. I have seen the top of the fuel pump housings crack, as well as the seal between the fuel pump and tank leak. Hope this helps, thank you,. Kyle S.

I checked under the car to see spilling gas and looked that drop gas tank is not easy in this car Miller is under tank and is big.is possible that bad fuel pump can do that
Automotive Expert
The housing for the fuel pump, or the lines, or the big seal between the fuel pump housing and tank. Need to figure out if it is a pressure leak ( gets worse while engine running), or a splash leak. The fuel pump is accessed under the back seat, the repair labor is only 1 hour.

Thanks
Automotive Expert
No problem. I am sorry your having this issue with your camry. Have a great day!

Can fuel pump inside te tank be responsable for having more pressure to suck gas and waste more gas than normal
Automotive Expert
No.

Sorry to bother. I've learned that fuel pressure regulator in this type of car Toyota camry 2003 le japan made is inside fuel pump and gotta do with lean or rich and has damper regulator in front o rail
Automotive Expert
If you had a rich condition, from a failed fuel system component, you would have a check engine lamp on a rich fault codes stored. Also, a rich condition could also be verified by looking at the fuel trim readings with a scan tool. Also, a fuel leak would harm economy greatly.

Well thanks, \*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\* question was if fuel pressure regulator in this car is built in the pump
Automotive Expert
Yes, this is a returnless system ( one fuel line), and the fuel pressure regulator is located in the fuel pump assembly.

Thanks a lot good answers . My curiosity is satisfied. It was first time to ask person. I'm not close to mechanics but I learned a little. God bless you

Thank you, \*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\*
