Best off to just change the filter I'd say but I'm far from an expert! :o

dont put any that stuff near the car, any fuel addatie will screw up the fueln even more, i know that from experanice took me ages to clear the lines
but even if you did add it, still not solve the problem, like i say it the pump
like all that stuff is doing in makeing it a higher octance

well she firen so she getn fuel, but the fuel can be dirty, like when
it ran low ya could have gotnn the shit in the bottom of the tank
best ting todo change the filter like keli said
becasue that first point when it gona get stuck

like i take she still not rite

ill put it this way everyting was grand until you ran outr of fuel
then she started spluttern and missing
so it could be fuel or just shit in the lines
id change the filter first and then see what happens

well you can try it, just from experance i put octance booster in the car to clean all the jets and the internals and was over fueling for weeks
tink i screwed up the map or someting, but i had fill the thank twice to clear it all out, a lession well leraned
but beaering in mind i got mine maped to the irish fuel

but try it but dont fill the tank to the brim, just quater or half a tank
and see how you get on,
if the chap say use fire away, maybe he used it before

like iam saying not to use, but just i had a bad experanice with the stuff

does your car have the standerd ecu

change your fuel filter.

dont bother with octane booster, spend your money on wortwhile bits

[P.s13 silvy]

fuel pump is shot, or the filter on the end of the pump is cacked up with gook

[NIALL JZX]

is there an aftermarket fuel pump in it ??
does it make a load noise wen u turn on ignition before u start the car ? if there is a load buzzin you'l know its uprated fuel pump...

if there is find out wat make it is...
possibly walbro by the sounds of it.. ive heard of a good few walbros goin to shit when the car runs out of petrol , with walbro pumps ya shouldn let the petrol go below quarter of a tank....
gtr pump are ten times better;) if you decide to replace the pump id put in a gtr one if i was you:)

take the feed pipe off the fuel filter and join it to another piece of pipe n stick it in a clean bucket , get someone to turn on ignition an watch to see if any shit comes out....

have a look at the filter while your at it..

if no shit comes from pipe , an petrol runs through fine , then its ur filter is blocked...

i'm gonna come at this from a different angle! i reckon if it aint a fueling problem,or sparking problem,that just leaves BOOST LEAK!! check all your pipe work for any tiny hole or slits, and also was it raining hard anytime where you are or did you hit any flood,could be wet air filter or afm sensor, just my two cents hope this helps bud

I think the car is N/A lad so it should be a fuel problem if all of the ignition side of things was taken care of properly:)
