Symptoms:
-CEL
- starts running rough, or "pinging" with a little less than a 1/4 of a tank left (appox. 3 gallons in the tank)
-performance is effected

I have tried, Fuel Injector cleaner and Octane Boost to try and clean it out. I'm think that there is something clogged but I don't know where to look. Could this also be the result of a bad sensor or something.

thanks!!

Try changing your fuel filter. If that doesn't cure it, your fuel pump is likely going bad. A mechanic can check to see if your fuel pressure is right.

Andy W. The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

my guess would be the fuel pump. i am on number 2 right now and when mine went bad it was always when i went around a left hand turn with less than 1/2 tank of gas. so what is the code for the cel?
