Every time I put gas in my car and it doesn't matter how much I pit in I will start to reve from 500- 2000rpm when I start it up after putting gas in the tank and the check engine light isn't on. And when I let the clutch out it would stall. Once you get the car moving and I push the clutch in it would stall. After driving for 5mins it would go back to normal. But since this has started 3 months ago my gas mileage has gone from an average of 42mpg down to 32mpg and I took to the dealership they have put on a new canaster and close off value. And the problem was still there. So when I brought it back fot the same problem last week the put on a new gas tank. Now my problem has gotten worse and they cant find any thing when they check computer they cant find anything wrong with the car. And since they replaced my gas tank my car has lack of power. At times when i'm on the highway my car would only do 80kmh or up 100kmh and now im getting 24mpg.
what would be causing this problem?

As fare as I know they have. And the car is getting worse. From all of the rough starting and shutting off its caused alot of strane on the pullys and know it sounds like my timing belt pully's are going. But it seems like my computer is shot cause my care would start to turn on lights on the dash as if it wasnt started up but it then it would make the car shutter and fire back up again at 250rpms or once in awhile it would completly shut the car off and fire back up again but only be running at about 100-150rpms and
