Wait it out, faggot

Shit'll evaporate pretty quick just wait a couple hours.
Wipe up what you can will an old rag and let it evaporate.
blast it off with air
>>14734550
pull all your spark plugs and let it air out for a while

how long?
>disconnect the fuel injectors
>yfw you realize you forgot the fuel pump
>>14734724
why would you have to disconnect the fuel pump to do a compression test?
>>14734707
like 30 minutes unless its pooled somewhere
Gas evaporates nearly instantaneously when it makes contact with anything hot. I wouldn't worry about it unless you see it pooling, in which case try to soak it up with some rags and let it dry up.

yes

>why
>>14734752
>disconnects injectors
>gasoline stills spews out of fuel lines because fuel pump wasnt disconnected
>>14735026
Yes
>>14735029
you only need to pull the electrical connector on the injectors. they still remain in place and connected to fuel line/rail
>/o/ is retarded
>>14735582
I just pull the fuel pump fuse, way faster
>>14735582
This is only the case with injection though. On an mech FP carb setup, you have to pull the fuel inlet line or you will have an internal carb gasket blow (experience talking, not proud but meh)
