when i turn my car on i have to pump the gas a couple of times so that it won't die on me...after i get the car running it runs fine...i just don't understand why i have to pump my gas so my car won't die...suggestions?

 

^^^^ replace the fuel filter ^^^^

 

speaking of fuel filters, is it really necessary to relieve the fuel system pressure like the repair manual says (by using a programmer and using technology and crap) or can u do it by doing something else. i already used the computer to do it , i was just wondering if there was an easier way for next time.- or do you really even have to do it?

 

^^^^ I just take off the gas cap ^^^^

 

take out fuse for the fuel pump and start the motor, itll die shortly after.

 

haha mine did that to me recently, didnt think of the fuel filter, could explain why Im getting HORRIBLe gas milage lol, yea, just open gas tank and take fuse out, put oil pan under car just incase

 

yea, thats pretty much what i had to do before, i borrowed the programmer thing from my friend, pulled fuse and started the car till it died,- but taking out gas cap seems a lot easier ,and i did that anyway when i did it.
