Hey guy's, i alway's fill up with cheveron 91 octane but this past week i accidently rode until the gas light came on. The car was peppy before but after i filled up it is so sluggish and the pedal is mushy. What could be the problem or will it just clear up on it's own whith the added techron in the gas over time?? Gotta 2000 se auto. thanks!

 

i run on empty all the time, its a way of life when you are cashless, but i never had anything like this happen. must be something else

 

is your gas cap screwed on tight?

 

What the heck does that have to do with anything??

 

you haven't read posts about people's cars throwing codes because the cap isn't on tight? If a loose cap can make a car throw a SEL code, it can also make your car run "funny."

believe it or not the gas cap is now "part of the fuel system"... it's not just a 'cap' any more.
