Just recently, I just had my blow motor, front axle and multi-switch replaced. Then had to have my brake line fixed and replaced my starter. I was pulled into a lot to park my car, put in park and turned off the ignition but it turned off hard. I turned back on the ignition and let it run for about 20-30 seconds and there did not seem to be a problem with it. An hour later, I came out to start my car and it would turn over but not start. I had noticed the fuel data center, which is electrical, had hadsome glitches after having received the car back from the brakes and starter getting worked on. So I though maybe something happened that was not showine me the correct amount of gas I actually had in the car. So I put about 2 gallons of gas in the car and waited 15 minutes but it still did not start. I knew it wasn't completely out of gas but was low enough. For example my car, when it is low on gas, will stall when I trying to pick up speed such as when I am merging onto the interstate. When my ride came, I tried one more time to start the car and though it turned over, it did not turn over as much as it had before.
Okay, so pretty much keep half a tank left in the car at all times. What kind of sound from the pump am I listening for for those 2-3 seconds? AN actual pumping sound or hissing sound or air pressure sound? Will the car be able to start if I put more gas into the tank? Or do you think I've blown the pump because I drove it while it was too low on gas?
