Look above the gas tank on the drivers side by the frame rail.
About a foot back from where the line transitions from steel to the rubber line.
Mine ruptured there.
And many others here have had it go there also.
Look for tell tale signs of fluid around the gas tank and frame.
Welcome to DF..... Both of you
