Car Shut off %**&^#(6^(*#@

Teknicz · March 3rd, 2010, 08:50 AM

So this morning i started my car ofcourse warmed it up and pulled off and it shut off on me within a couple feet! i tried to start it wouldnt turn over, battery and everything is good because lights are still bright, so i called my pops and we loosed the intake and open the throttle body full and it started then shut off back a couple of times

we finally well he finally came to the conclusion that it wasnt burning the gas, NOT THE BEST WAY TO START OFF A DAY AND I HAD CLASS!!! The only thing different i did was i went to Hess gas station and filled up, only because i was really low on gas, i usually fill up at Mobile. I think that Hess was just a cheap low grade gas and my car doesnt like it lol.. what should i do,...so i took my dad caddi to school...Update, he just called and said it started and was idiling well.. i think i prolly throw some octane booster to try to make it more thinner and easy to burn i guess.....Sorry for the long story needed to express my anger somewhere, whoever's reading hope i entertain 2 mins of your day =) loll..

SOO established that my tank has water inside of it, maybe the gas station was low on fuel and it picked up water or some shit.. all i have to say is FML!!

dang that sucks man, gotta hate cheap gas stations, and octane booster makes it harder to burn, octane is the resistance to burn, hence why cars with higher compression run it to prevent detonation, best idea would be to drain tank and fill with good gas
