I have a problem with my car hesitating and feels like it's outta gas.I read somewhere to remove the gas cap and try and it seems to be fine. I guess the fuel tank vent gets resticted so i here but not sure what to do next. Please help. Thanks.

what's up junior12766, had the same problem about 6 months ago with my 98deville. After going to a local cad dealer and being told that my auto would need a new fuel filter,fuel pump and but first i would need to buy a new battery so they could check it out first for any electrical problems..I told them that i would come and pick my car asap! After makeing sure that it was not my alternator a lady told me to check my battery and cables, so i did the battery terminals itself were clean however the battery cables were in bad shape i used a acid spray to clean the cables end clamps and the car ran without any problems up until last week now the car kills on me when i come to a stop so now i plan on changing both the neg and pos cables and check the surface of the neg cable to make sure its clean,i have been searching the web looking for other forums like this one and i have come to the concluesion that the stalling problem affects most later model cars 90 on up to 2005 this has a lot to do with the computer chips (sensor's) installed to tell us when something is due or something is going bad those sensor's don't work right if they don't get the right amount of current(juice) from battery and cables just like our heart and blood vessels the battery and cables work the same after getting old they begain to clog up and become brittle causeing a leak or loss of electrical current (juice) to all those (nerves) sensor's..Check it out and get back with me maybe i'm right!!!!
