Putting gas when engin still runs??
I put gas at 76 gas station and didn't turn off the car, so my car was still on. what
happened was...the gas pump stopped like when the gas tank is all filled up, but it
was only half tank filled...well after that I couldn't feel the turbo power, and the
engin sound was kinda different from what i usually hear. I reved up almost to
redline like when i race, but couln'd feel much power. my question is does this have
anything to do with puuting gas while the enging is still running?
I have freind. supra owner, he never turned off his car when he put gas. and his car
was fine.....Help`~^_^

Not sure but, most new cars have sensors that read for vacuum in tank for evap system. Taking the cap off while engine is running will cause a mil if long enough and will make it run like crap until it relearns.
Good luck, BMan
