Want this question answered?
if the car is completely out of gas then it take a little while for the fuel pump to get the fuel to the engine, but i got an alternative, when you turn the key on just let it sit for a second and don't press the gas pedal or try to start it, it should let the gas get to the engine.
If feels like your car isn't getting gas to the engine, perhaps the fuel injectors are clogged. You may also need to change the fuel filter.
The Engine can turn over with out gas. The started is engaged and turn the crankshaft, just as one would turn the engine over by hand. For sustained revolutions however, gas is needed to react in the engine chambers
Carburetor needle valve probably leaking while engine is not running causing gas to run down the cylinders into the crankcase.
Are you going up a hill? Did you take your foot off the gas and is the compression of the engine slowing you down? Are your brakes sticking? Is your car getting the correct amount of air to fuel ratio? there are lots of reasons why a car would slow down while you're driving it. start with the easiest.
Yes, to avoid a spark from the car's electrics igniting petrol fumes (gas), it is mandatory to switch off the engine while refuelling. There should be a notice at the pumps telling you to switch off the engine.
Yes, it is possible as you may have a miss. That miss would turn on the check engine light.
Turn your engine off, check the gas cap and restart your car. If that doesn't work, be more specific about which car you have or check your owners maunal.
No, low gas cannot cause a Check Engine light to turn on. There would have to be a problem within the engine or the engine wiring for that light to come on.
I'm having the same problem...I was just told to make sure the gas cap is on tight, when you are done getting gas, turn the gas cap so it clicks three times. Not sure if this is your issue but it is possible.
This is caused by the needle and seat not closing off the flow of fuel. The gas gets into the cylinder, fills it up, and when you turn the engine over it compresses the gas. This forces the gas to work its way around the end gaps in the rings and into the crankcase (and oil).
start by disconneting the fuel filter on the engine side then turn the key if there is no fuel getting through then it is a clogged filter. if tht is not the problem then your screwed. start by disconneting the fuel filter on the engine side then turn the key if there is no fuel getting through then it is a clogged filter. if tht is not the problem then your screwed.
