FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
AFTER I FILL UP THE FUEL TANK WITH GAS, THE VEHICLE STOPS RUNNING. THIS USUALLY HAPPENS 1-3 TIMES AFTER FILLING UP. IT WILL DIE AT LOW SPEEDS OR IDLE AT A STOP LIGHT AND HAS EVEN DIED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD (ONCE IN THE MIDDLE OF A ROUNDABOUT) THIS SEEMS TO. BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR THESE VEHICLES WITH THE 5.7 LITER V-8 (SUCH AS MINE). I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED AFTER EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE, DID A LITTLE DIGGING AND FOUND OUT THIS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A HAZARD AND I AM WONDERING IF THERE IS A RECALL IN PLACE FOR THIS ISSUE. *TR
