Description of the problem | "pure" gas smell in exhaust.... Vehicle fails to restarts after being driven short distances , turne off, and re-started. Has happened since i have purchased the vehicle.... Dealership/repair never finds any problems. This is the 5th time it has happened over a year. Car will not re-start, unless i wait 2-4 hours & try again. Dealership/service said may have something to do with where i purchase fuel.... But i fill up at several places through out the week... So i know that's not the problem.*ak |
