A leaking and bad FPR can leak fuel into the vacuum hose and into the throttle body. No matter how much or little fuel it leaks, that indicatea a bad FPR and this could cause all kinds of issues with the car.

Please perform the tests as mentioned above and report back. We are here to help you out.

Your first post mentioned gas in the hose between your filter and throttle body. Being that there is no filter on a vacuum hose going to the throttle body we assumed you meant the fuel pressure regulator as it might be confused as a filter to some.

Do you mean the hose that goes from the drivers front fender area aka (charcoal canister) to the throttle body?

If so you need to replace your charcoal canister right away and look at your fuel filling practices. Topping off and filling to the level of the gas cap are usually the practices that cause this problem.

Bill, I think he'* talking about the airbox, not the charcoal (evap) canister.

The only possible source is a faulty FPR backfeeding into the vacuum line. Then when he shuts down, it drips out the TB and into the accordian tube.
