hi guys n girls
I think my celica is not very well atm, this is my problem if anyone could help me. Everytime I get out of the car after I have driven her I get a strong smell of petrol and it seems to go through a lot of fuel even if I drive like a granny but I cant see any leaks. It is a GT4 95* model. any help would be great cheers |

Otherwise, I did have a similar problem with my car, the smell of petrol after driving and high fuel consumption... I changed my fuel filter and this alleviated the fuel smell problem, and somewhat reduced my fuel consumption (1-2L/100km). Otherwise, the only thing I can think of is a fuel leak, it could be between the fuel tank and engine, or at one of the various points that tubes are clipped on... --------------------  ------------------------------| White '94 Celica | Bought 11/05/12 | Sold 12/05/15 |------------------------------ |
