Subject:      Fuel Overflow, Vacuum leaks, the pressure is getting to me???

Okay,

I mentioned a cold stalling a couple seconds after starting...overflowing gas from under right side behind right front wheel.

I can hear what I think is a vacuum leak somewhere near the upper left side of the engine compartment when running and one of the clear hoses that I believe comes from one of the expansion tanks keeps popping off the connection nearby/between the alternator and the air flow meter.

I'm guessing that somewhere I've got a leak or leaks and the pressure keeps popping this hose of the fitting...I've put it back and tightened it a couple times now...time to find the real trouble.

Any ideas?
