Hello list.  My '70 has been sitting in my driveway most of the past 3
months.  I've driven it maybe 6 times.  Today I noticed that the tank
is down to 1/4 but I've only gone about 90 miles since I filled it.  I
don't recall having seen any evidence of an evaporative control system
on this car, but I haven't really looked too hard.  Are these cars
known to lose lots of gas to evaporation, or is it more likely I have
a slow drip?  Engine performance seems to be the same as it always has
been.

Thanks,
Eric
