Fuel Leak??

I have always gotten 260 or more miles for a full tank of gas and when I got home on Friday I had just above a quarter tank of gas and I was at 220 miles. I left my car in the driveway and about an hour later I came back to pull it in the garage. Well I started it and noticed that the gas light was on now. I thought that is was just because it was on an incline but after it sitting in the level garage for a minute the gas light was still on. I looked under the car and I didnt see any fuel leaking or puddles. I check the fuel pump unit under the rear drivers side and the area was dry and there was no fuel smell. I thought that it was a one time thing but after filling my car up and driving to work today I noticed that I had only put 100 miles on the car and I am at half tank. I cant figure what the problem would be. I am monitoring my A/F ratio and it looks normal and I havent seen any fuel under my car when it is parked.

Any ideas?

Thanks

uhh this your first week of owning an evo or something? I'm lucky if I get 220 miles to a tank... I usually get 180-200 miles to the tank... haha no fuel leak buddy other than your evo's injectors...

Hehe no I drive highway to work everyday and fill up my Evo every other day. I have filled my Evo over 100 times and I reset my trip every time. I have never seen under 260 miles on a tank and my car is also running very rich under WOT (10:1).
