Hi:
does this only happen once after refueling? My only consideration would be that you are mixing up sedament in the tank and then it makes its way into the pump.

Hi:
The only thing that makes sense to me is the tank must be dirty and you're kicking up dirt. The only way to check is to remove the tank which is a pain. How long does it take for the problem to stop? Does the van restart if it dies? Have you replaced the fuel filter lately? That is where I would start.

Yes it will start back up and be fine til we get more gas. We only have had the van for only a couple months. So any way I will change the gas filter but again it only happen after I get gas and I fine all the rest of the time. So if you think of anything let me know
