I WAS STARNDED IN THE HIGHWAY AND WALKED TO A GAS STATION. THEY HAD NO CONTAINER TO CARE GAS SO I BOUGHT TWO FUEL CLEANERS ASSUMING SUCH WILL ALLOW ME TWO DRIVE BACK TO THE STATION LESS THAN 100 1/8 MILE AWAY. CAR DID NOT START AND I PUSHED TO STATION AND FILL TANK. THE CAR NEVER STARTED AGAIN. I WONDER IF I CAUSED MAJOT DAMAGE TO GAS SYSTEM.

i WAS TOLD THAT SINCE VEHICLE NEVER STARTED IT NEVER REACHED THE SYSTEM. I CLEANED AND CLEANED FUEL FILTER AND PUMP. NO LUCK, HELP PLZ

Does the car crank at all? First try spraying the starting fluid into the intake while someone is trying to start it. Don't use too much though, just one or two short sprays. Let me know how it goes. Also having caps lock on isn't going to make us answer faster we do what we can.
