The other day I was low on gas (almost if not on the red line) and I parked on the angle that makes my tank go even lower, it was a pretty steep hill. I went into my friends house for about 10 min we hopped in my car after and as I turned the key it wouldnt start just make a sound like it wants to. I tried a bunch of times but couldnt get it to fire up. I slipped it into neutral and pushed my car facing the opposite way on the hill, boosted it and it seemed to be ok. I went to the gas station filled up and when I tried to turn it back on it did the same thing (the gas station was only 4 blocks), I got the car boosted again drove it for awhile and then it worked fine and I thought that was the end of it. This morning about 2 days after it did the same thing but after the first time it didnt work I pumped the gas as I tried to turn the key and it started fine and now it seems to be ok again... I dont want my car to fail on me when I need it so I am wondering if there is something I should do to avoid this problem again, the sound when trying to start wasnt a constant sound it was more of a single strong attempt to start my car then weaker attempts... if that makes sense....

Heres a video I took. its a 1998 chevy lumina 3.8 for those of you that dont know.

OK - this CAN'T be for real.

NOBODY has this many issues with one car. I mean, I've had 20-year-old beaters which have less issues.

I have officially decided that you are just a troll. You can add me to your ignore list if you like, because I've just added you to mine. Quit wasting people's time.

Ya man ur Rasium Tazilation device.....it provides energetic motion to the gas molecules. No start after running dry on gas is the symptom.

You need to make sure that your hydraporting jets are clean and that your fluxcapacitor is topped up with the premium banana peels.


Also. :rofl:
