Celica Forums General Discussion General Problems with my car

Ok, I was at the gas station. Filled up, got back in the car, started her up, and then it died. I had to restart it, then give it a lot of gas so it wont die out again. What is the problem?

whats your car setup?? any mods?? stock??? what yr is the car? and how old is the car? new or used??

could be Very bad gas, clogged fuel filter, bad fuel pump ect... the list could go on to what the problem is.

was the gas in the car completely sucked dry before you filled up?

hes not responding.. so i guess its not very important to him..

Actually I wasnt online obviously. I have a cold air intake, and a Nopi exhaust. Its a 2000 GT.

and its wasnt totally empty. Its done it multiple times, so its not like it just happend once.

umm you try fuel injector cleaner and cleaning your MAF sensor and your throttle body??

Ill have to check the injectors, cause i replaces the mass air, and the throttle body is clean.

try fuel injector cleaner too bro...

Will do, but another thing i forgot to mention, when i take off the gas cap, its not pressurized. Might that be a problem too?

whoa?? you dont hear it releasing AIR???

Not at all

im thinking it could be a bad fuel pump...

ok how much do fuel pumps run? and how much to install if i cant do it?

hmm maybe you should change your name to my_celi_doesn't_rock

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

ha ha, but maybe you should go play some more halo 2...and let the big boys talk cars

Im just saying is all

just joking man!

Its your intake. Is it cold out were you live. The intakes tend to boggle in the cold.

but it sounds like it's only happening when he fills with gas.

try switching gas stations, I've heard that some stations' tanks have water leaks in them and then you pump a little water into the car and it gives you problems.

i have the same problem it really pisses me off i think maby its the gas cap or some thin like that idk im gonna take it up to the dealers

gas cap will cause a check engine light SOMETIMES , but wont cause your car to not start... never seen that before

Well i live in New Mexico, where the coldest it gets in the middle of winter is about 30 f.

Yes, but when I open the gas cap, usually air comes out right? In my case it doesnt.

Why don't you take your celica to a professional mechanic dude!

So get it some professional care right away!...i want to here your next post that is fixed up and purrring like a kitten! i just hate to see a celica being neglected!
