It only used to do this when the low fuel light was on, but now has been happening with progressively more fuel in the tank. Is it just a filter or does the tank need to be cleaned out? Or is it the fuel pump?
I also started to have a ignition problem were the tack would jump around and the engine would run ruff once and a while. Dealer said $600.00 for ignition modual, so I said no way and replaced it my self. Still having problems, I also replaced coils and eventually the PCM. The car ran great for about 2,000 miles and than one day just wouldn't start ( for my wife of course, always happens when she has the car. She does't talk nice to it.) When the car won't start the tack doesn't show any revs while the engine is cranking. Then a day later I tried to start it and the tack showed revs as it cranked and it started fine. It happens spearatically since than. I have checked all the wiring to the new PCM, ignition modual, and any ground wires I could find, and they all seen OK. thanks for reading my novel, any input would be greatly apprecheated. (a big help) thanks John
P.S. Could one of the new parts be bad?

I have a 1992 SSE that had a simular problem it turned out to be the fuel sender. The tubes coming out of the tank were rusted you could smell fuel every once in while not cheep but it is nice to have working correctly. Mine would stall going around turn at 1/4 tank of gas.
