Hi, my cossie is only getting 250 to a tank also this morning noticed very strong smell of petrol at exhaust mixed with white smoke(Not oil). What could cause the very rich running of the car? Guy.

Was a thread running a couple of weeks ago. Very similar. Ended as an injector fault. From what I recall Iff you listened under bonnet with ignition on but without engin running you could hear the injecter still ticking.
