For months I've had a problem with my fuel gauge...I always fill my tank to full and as I use the gas it will make it's way down to half a tank then drops suddenly to empty. I've been reseting the trip so I know how much gas I have but now I'm smelling what I think is gas in my garage. I don't smell it while I'm driving. Just a strong odor after it's been parked in the garage for any length of time. Thank you

Check were you put the gas in, the pipe that runs to the tank from the filler neck could have pin hole rust thru...common....
