Hey guys im new to this whole thing, i just purchased a 1992 rx7 love the car. but it has developed a fuel leak under the intake manifold, and leaks around it.. now i;ve been told that this is a common recall defect in the lines ... but i figured id get some other opionions, the import place that sold me the car says its a hose/clamp just under the intake that gets crap from the heat because the lines are shwag... and that its a decently hard task just to get the intake off, but actually fixing the leak is easy... he said a shop can do it for aroind 250$ canadian.. any help or anything would be nice ,. thanks guys.

I would search for a shop that specializes with RX7s. Do not let some ham fisted mechanic that is not familiar with these vehicles. I would check to see if it is not the Pulsation Dampner that is leaking. Also, I would drive the car in its current condition. A lot of RX7s have met a fiery death due to some part leaking fuel on the engine.
