shouldn't be that low unless your ragging it about

have you checked hoses under the inlet manifold for leaks and does the coolant temp gauge stick at 90 when warmed up?

I've just got 300 miles on £60 and averaged about 25mpg. Mines over fueling and I can smell it. Anyone know what could cause the over fueling because the mpg is sh!te!!!

I have not checked hoses on mine (yet) and it stays on 90 when warmed up, what does this mean?
