Quick question...I noticed a large fuel smell from the right rear tire of my 1995 E320. Upon closer inspection, I noticed one of the fuel lines from the fuel filter was cracked and wet. I want to replace this line but wasn't sure what safety precautions I should take. I don't want to remove the hose and have all the fuel from the tank start gushing out! Any way to limit/prevent spillage?
