Description of the problem | After refueling the vehicle is difficult to start, pumping the accelerator helps but the engine will stall suddenly within a few miles of the fill up. On two occasions i have lost power when driving on a major street with 1/4-1/2 tank of fuel. This stall is preceeded by a loud, disonate noise from the fuel filler. There is www information regarding failed purge valves, but most information is for earlier models. The focus recall seems identical. This is obviously a safety issue and i have taken the caution to stay off the road after fueling till the engine is running smoothly. Codes checked with only one reading coming up -a year ago. |
