lowFUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Filed: Aug 2016

When filling the gas tank to full. Starting the car and driving it, the RPM's fluctuate drastically, and the car "bucks" at any speed (no particular speed, observed at a stop, accelerating, cruise control, 45 MPH). Once the gas level is less than full - around 7/8 of a tank, the van seems to drive ok.
