Possible Fuel Leak / Bad mileage - advice needed.
Hey there everyone!
Story time: So, I have a 93' SC400 - I filled up the tank yesterday night and went to work this morning. My usual work route is around 27KM//16.8 Miles one way...
Now I went for a bite to eat, drove around for a bit to pick and drop a friend and reached work and realized my fuel gauge is just above half?
Problem: So almost half a tank for roughly 20-30 miles???? Now I do not detect any fuel smell but I suspect a leak somewhere and checked the car for leaks (a quick check underneath but have not jacked the car yet). Any indication to what this may be due to? Possible issues I should check? Any advise would be great as I'm trying not to panic.
I'll try to get the SC into the garage so I can raise the car and actually see whats going on... just a bit worried here!
Thank you in advance =)
