Intermittent stalling
Hi , my daughter has a 2004 CRV ,car has run fine until she ran out of fuel, filled up from Gerry Can , she drove about 250 meters and it stalled, I started it by pumping gas pedal, went fine ,now does same thing intermittently. So drives fine , then stalls at idle, can be restarted with pumping gas pedal , will run fine again then randomly does this again. Did it last night , got it started , drove home with engine getting rough as I drove in driveway , then stalled as I pulled up to stop. Wouldn’t run at idle , needed to give it some juice Tom stay running . This morning , fine again ? Just took it for a drive and goes perfect. I thought it must be fuel filter getting blocked , thoughts?

What old beast do you have that has a carburetor? A plugged fuel filter will not ever run good. Look elsewhere.
|
So you think it could not be fuel filter ?any ideas what it could be
|
Do you have a scan tool to look at live data?

I wonder if running it drive sucked up some sediments in the tank or the gasoline had water or something in it.
|
Fill up the gas tank to at least half full.
There is sediment or water in the gas tank And yes, there will always be water and/or sediment in the gas tank of a 19 year old car This can cause this issue. Run the engine for a while after this. |
Sediment and debris could have clogged the fuel filter
