Ethanol ate the rubber and gas was leaking.

15-30 minutes
Tools Used
Screwdriver, Pliers
Removed the old parts by pulling them off with needle nose pliers. Worked the new parts into place, more easily than expected.
Just keep track of what goes where, and it's pretty easy. Should be good to go for awhile until the gas eats the rubber again.
