have an ongoing problem with the sax, its off the road at the min so may as well fix some of the issues.
Basically about a 6/7 months ago i filled up full tank, right to top, realised when i was walking back to car after paying that there was fuel gushing out from bottom of car.
left it for time being, drove off and wasnt a trail or anything, just about 4/5 quids worth of fuel on ground.
Few months later i had stripped the saxo out and again filled up drove around etc, no fuel gushing out HOWEVER it was EXTREMELY potent fuel smell inside the car, also looked under neath the big black plastic gromit under where rear bench should be and some very small amount of fuel around top.
Now what sort of problem am i looking at here? i no longer fill right up, only 3/4 of way and dont have an issue, but as the car is going to be tracked from now, this issue MUST be resolved.
any help would b good, sorry for long read
