| Description of the problem | Filled tank with fuel. Drove about 1/4 mile and stopped at light to turn onto highway, car stalled and dash reads "shift to p then desired gear", picture attached, then drove about 6 miles. Had to stop and at light car stalled and dash read same as above.. This happened when i stopped at work and when i was driving to dealer happened both times i needed to stop and same when i pulled under the service area at the dealer.. Dealer said there was an issue with fuel system.. The problem is the vapor/liquid separator valve located at the top of the fuel tank. The valve is designed to prevent liquid fuel from entering the charcoal canister/emissions system. When the valve fails, liquid gas can enter the line and fill the charcoal canister. After refueling the pcm on the vehicle detects a change in fuel level. Then, when the engine meets certain temperature and driving criteria, the pcm issues a purge command to the charcoal canister to remove the stored gas vapors. It |
