    The fuel pump went out on my 97 GTP and I replaced it with a new one and everything seemed to work great... However I believe I have a fuel leak in my engine, I went from 400 miles for a tank of gas down to 100 miles for a tank of gas, also when the a/c is on I smell fuel but nothing is visibly leaking. Please help

    If you can't see the wet spot throw some flour on it.
    An engine is an engine no matter the size.... I think Dr. Seuss said that... or maybe it was Big Weld....

    Go fill your tank and look. Or look under the cover where the fuels attach to the fuel tank

    Or you just could have screwed up the sender making it show you're on E when actually you're not.
