don't catch the car on fire in the process, it has an electric fuel pump. I wouldn't run the car , put the key in the start position for a few seconds at a time and it should start pumping fuel, narrow it down by the wet spot. a loose fuel line connection, a rotted rubber fuel line, a clogged fuel filter could cause this.

Any fuel leak bad enough to actually make the engine die must be fairly significant. Were there any symptoms before it stopped running?

Under the hood or under the center or back of the car?

Where to start? Well.... does it have aluminum wheels? Those are around $17/ea... cut the catalytic converter off and sell it seperately, battery seperately, poke a hole in the tank and go weigh it up
Scrap rate's about $210/ton right now around me :jerk:

Where to start with a Camry...? It's time for a BRICK-IN!!!
Start with one of these:
1) Purchase brick, brats, buns, and case of beer.
2) Invite the Bros over (if you are married and whipped, get permission from SWMBO first)
3) Cook brats and serve with beer
4) Get a sheet of paper and a pencil to write down bets on.
5) Drink more beer
6) Put the car in a "safe" spot with a fire extinguisher at the ready. Start car and hack timer.
7) PLACE the brick ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL - get away to a safe distance
8) Drink more beer and laugh your a$$ off (while drinking more beer) as your Camry eats itself
9) When it dies, record the time and drink more beer. Vehicle is awarded to the "winner" who guessed how long it would survive at full throttle with a brick on the accelerator pedal.
THAT, SIR, IS WHAT TO DO WITH A CAMRY!!! (when you've asked the question on a vintage MOPAR site)

This one isn't running, so it would be an eternity...
If it was running though, the rev limiter would make it take an eternity.

Just more time to drink beer!
As for the rev limiter...you always have the option of starting the game with no oil, or water, or both!

and anyone who doesn't know what SWMBO is, she who must be obeyed, and in which case you probably aren't allowed to drink beer either.
