sc4sooner Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 i have no clue what is causing the problem, but if you pull forward on the rear lining of the trunk it will pop out and expose the fuel tank, i believe there is a place to access it from in there, you can try pouring gas straiging into the tank from there, if it works its a neck problem, if it doesnt its probalbly a line problem.

What does your fuel tank display say on your dash? It kind of sounds like you're fuel-pump may not be working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If fuel stands in the neck and yet the tank runs dry, the problem is in the neck. Its not a fuel pump problem - you wouldn't have gotten to the service station to begin with if the fuel pump weren't doing its thing. Is the fuel cap missing? Sometimes when a fuel cap gets lost or stolen people will cram rags, paper, etc. into the neck as a substitute. This stuff can get pushed all the way down to the tank eventually and shut off the flow of fuel. Check the neck first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
