CougarSport Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I have a 03 Baja that has a hesitation for about 5 to 10 miles after I fill up with gas. It goes away completely after 5 or 10 miles. Tells me it's not plugs, plug wires, bad gas, clogged fuel filter or water. Any suggestions. Aaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzam Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Do you "top-off" the tank after the first click? If you do, you could be introducing gas into the vapor recycling tube that leads to the evaporator canister. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CougarSport Posted August 15, 2007 Author Share Posted August 15, 2007 I don't top off the tank. Learned not to do that shortly after buying my Baja. Nothing like soaking shoes with gas. Any other suggestions. Aaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virrdog Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Has the fuel filter ever been replaced?? One of the simplest tune-up items you can do. And since starting up the car after is filling up is usually a hot start... you might have a problem with your coolant temp. sensor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
