My car occasionally starts sputtering then quits. This seems to only be happening when going up an incline, and it does not have to be very steep.

Once it quits, after a couple tries it will start and run just fine.

Under a load, the engine requires more fuel. I would start with checking the fuel filter then fuel pump pressure.

If the check engine light has come on, let me know.
