Consumer Description

2000 FORD FOCUS. AFTER PUMPING GAS AND THEN STARTING THE ENGINE. THE CAR STARTS AND THEN DIES. THE RPM. GOES JUST UNDER 2 AND THEN DROPS DOWN TO NOTHING AND THE ENGINE STALLS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO MY MECHANIC SEVERAL TIME AND HE CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT. SO THEN I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC THAT DEALS JUST IN ENGINES, AND HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON WITH IT. THE PROBLEM IS THAT IT ONLY DOES IT AFTER YOU PUMP FUEL. IT STARTS FINE EVERY OTHER TIME. THE ONLY OTHER DIFFERENCE IS THAT I AM NOTICING THAT I GO THROUGH FUEL FASTER NOW AND I AM GETTING LESS MILEAGE. *TR
