Try driving with the fuel cap off, obviously not when brim full and not aggresive round corners. If this cures the problem you know what the answer is. Also if when opening fuel cap you may hear a hiss which would also indicate a blocked fuel breather. Hope this helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
