Why would a 1998 ford escort run rough or not start after fueling?

the only reason a car will run rough or not start after refueling is either the wrong type of fuel has been put in[i.e diesel into a petrol or visa versa]or the fuel put in is contaminated.


What would cause a 1997 Ford Escort to run rough when idling?

The most common cause of rough idling would be a bad or clogged fuel injector. Also look for the hose on your EGR valve. They tend to come off in hot weather. If the hose comes off the engine will definitely run rough. I had to put a small hose clamp on mine to keep it from comming off. Spiritchsr1

Why doesn't 1996 vw jetta start when wet?

You might check the distributor cap - my 1997 Jetta would run very rough until I got into 2nd gear when the weather was damp or wet. I checked the distributor and not only was one of the connections loose, there was a crack in the cap. After I replaced that...it was perfect in any weather.


Your 95 ford escort won't start it's not the battery nor starter nor fuses?

I don't own a 95 ford escort. But if I did, and the motor turned over but would not start, I'd look at either the ignition module or fuel pump first.

I would start with the easy answer. Check both of your headlamps to be sure that the low beam filament is still intact. If all is well there, I would start leaning towards the multi-function switch (which is the headlamp / turn signal lever.

Will the Atlantic be rough for a cruise in November?

That will depend on what part of the Atlantic Ocean you are cruising in. In the north of the Atlantic it would be winter, but in the south of it it would be summer. Some parts of the Atlantic can be rough at many times in the year, summer and winter. An official cruise would be very careful as to when and where they travel. Weather is unpredictable.
