| Description of the problem | When filling up my gas tank (after longer trips 75+miles) the car will stall then die within feet of leaving the gas station. The car will buck and jump forward to prevent itself from stalling / dying after the fill up. Usually i am filling up with the fuel gauge 1 gallon from empty. I believed it was just air in the fuel lines, but for this to happen when the vehicle is waiting at a stop light or pulling out of the gas station, i am now concerned it is not just air in the fuel in lines. Please provide information as what to do, and fix this! Many other people have experienced this while in traffic and its a dangerous problem! |
