The fire in your car , if it originated in the engine compartment, was not from the broken diaphram of the fuel accumulator as it is located next to the fuel filter in front of the right rear wheel well. I am curious as to which fuel line failed in the engine compartment?
But the fuel leakage was due to the ethanol introduced into the exygenated gas fuel about 15-20 years ago... a lot of cars developed fuel leaks at that time.
Somehow the gas companies got absolved of any responsibility.. maybe they had good lawyers... and put the responsibility onto the poor unsuspecting car owners!
You were very lucky... imagine what would have happened if the fire had started while the car was in the garage?
