Sounds like no choice but to drop the tank to figure out what's going on. I'll post back when I have more info. Hopefully Thurs/Fri.
When I got to work today, the gas smell was worse than ever. When I checked the access hole under the rear seat in the carpet I could see some very fresh gas residue on top of the tank. Time to siphon out that almost-full tank and stop screwing around.
M.P.--thanks for the tip. No need to take the picture unless yours is very different from this one: http://www.cooliemail.com/saab-fuel-pump.html
I haven't decided if I am brave enough to cut the hole. It just sounds bad.... BTW, when I refilled/overfilled, the gauge went up to about 1/2 full though the tank is totally full.
And for your 3/4 full issue--I think the mechanic is right. The new fuel level sender may have slightly different ohms than the old one. If the rate of consumption is correct, as you said, I believe a Tech-II can be used to adjust the gauge up/down when the tank sends a full signal.
