okay, i did try searching however the search kept screwing up for some reason??? had Http error or soemthing...

anyway... this has happened twice... either i went to go start my car after its been in a parking lot and it refuse to turn over... the car is trying but its like no fuel is getting in, eventually shake the car and she turns over... (i know wierd) and then im driving home through a snow storm, turn off into a subdivision to let the idiots pass by and im turning around (just stopped and shifted into reverse) the car RPM's drop to rough 300-400 and then engine cuts out... i sit there trying to start car and shaking it like last time, left hood up to let some heat escape, and then it randomy turns back over after 10min of trying/ sitting there

grandfather thinks its either Vapor lock or bad gas... have added heet since and good gas... need other opinions if it happens again...

happend to me too today but i was in like 50 degree weather so wasn't weather conditions for me :/

start your own threads with all the details.

don't forget year/motor/trans info.

well i think ive narrowed mine down to the type of gas i purchased... it hasnt happened since i added heet and filled up with BP fuel... and weather conditions may not have to do with it if theres water in the fuel... im just glad she didnt die on me while i was on a major road... that could been bad...

but as far as your issue, please do post in your own thread with all details as listed by a previous member... where not trying to slag you off where just trying to keep threads true to what they say or are about to the thread makers original intents... dont think us telling you to go create a new thread or to search is us slagging you off as ive been told serveral times it has usually already came up so search and if nothing has been found make a thread and see who posts what...
