Peachy seems to have developed a fuel leak that leaves no apparent evidence other than the smell of fuel when the car is stopped or moving slowly in heavy traffic. Obviously I'm just leaving the aroma behind when moving at a good clip. It's so bad when parked that I have to leave the garage doors open for a while after bringing the car in to avoid asphyxiating anyone who enters the garage. Mileage seems to have taken a significant dive too. But again, no visual evidence of a fuel leak apparent.
Also, no rough idle, no loss of power, no hesitation. Starting is slightly,
slightly more sluggish than when Merkey handed Peachy over, but the weather's also colder now. . .
Naturally I'm concerned for a variety of reasons, not least of which is the risk of Car-B-Que!
Great threads here on Jetronic issues, EHA, fuel dist., etc., none of those seem to describe a match for what I'm experiencing.
