Trouble with my 94 accord

[darkhunter139 10+ year member]

Alright well I have a 1994 Honda accord ex. The car only has 57k miles on it and runs great most of the time. When I am low on gas the car stalls when I come to a stop sometimes, its strange to me. it only happens when I am low on gas like well below 1/4th of a tank. I took it to the shop and they said they adjusted the idling time or something but that didnt do nothing. Anyone got any clue what it could be? Figured id ask

Don't know much about foreigns, but... maybe a foreign object/clog in your gas tank? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

I should get them to check that I dont see what else it could be really. I mean it NEVER does it unless its low on gas and always starts right back up again instantly.

Inaccurate gas gauge?

Have you had your fuel filter changed recently?

That would make sense but it always starts back up again on the first try. I just pop it into park and start it back up.

Shoulda mentioned that in my original post.

Yep they actually did that as well last time I brought it in.

Hmm... only other thing I can think of is to have your fuel pump checked out... everything else seems to run correctly?

Have you checked the beep juice or blinker fluid?

Fuel Pump? Could be not enough pressure.

I just replaced the blinker fluid last week. It could be the beep juice however.

I had a 94' Accord also. They had a problem with the 94-95 Accords that the fuel gauge wasn't always accurate. When you fill your tank up, the needle probably goes above the F mark? Its most likely the fuel gauge being inaccurate.

Yeah it does. I can drive it for a while before it even starts going down
