Sat in a garadge for a year, started rite up, and drove 30mi. Now it won't start at all. It's like no fuel, but it has 1/2 a tank. It will idle rough if I pull the breather, and spray some fuel, but only if I feather the throttle. As soon as I stop it dies. Also I can't find the fuel filter to check it. 2005 Kia Sorento. Please Help. I don't have the money for a dealer fix, can't even afford to tow it to get looked at. I'm hopeing It's something I will be able to do.
It looks like water sediment has accumulated in the tank.you must find the fuel filter and clean it sometimes its near the tank and also at the back of engine and front of firewall. you have must try to clean the tank sometimes there is a plug under the tank or buy a water dispenser from auto supply
