The patient in question here is our beloved '00 LX which has been in the family for eight years and has 152K on it. Not much of anything has been done apart from regular maintenance.
For the last ten days or so I've been noticing that I'm getting reduced MPG by quite a margin, and have been confronted by occasional gas odor. Apart from that, the car runs fine, no changes in behavior.
I can't see any leaks in the gas tank area, or engine compartment.
Where would you start?
Thanks in advance for any/all suggestions.
