CAS i know when they r failing will cause erratic problems especially when it gets warm.....

AFM could be out of spec as well.... so try some others from a mate or something...

hey mate, sounds like you got two problems 1. leaking fuel 2.running rich
1. you know what needs to be done there. stop the leaks.
2. Running rich could be your coolant temp sensor or wiring to the sensor. replace or test, this could work or i couldn't but its worth having a look at
