I have a 2001 chevy impala with about 150,000 miles on it. It sat for about 2 weeks and when I went to drive it again it has a rough idle and shudders and sputters whenever I drive it, mainly on acceleration(flat and uphill). kind of feels like its going to shut off because of a lack of gas, but the gas is fine no water in it. I used heet and a fuel line/injector cleaner just in case and still have a problem. It was fine before I parked it aside from random high idle and slight forced acceleration whenever it felt like doing so, once or twice every 6 months or so.

Check throttle position sensor, clean out throttle body, check fuel filter and clean mass air flow sensor. Get a code test done if problem persists, or you will be chasing your tail on that. Your tank can hold over a gallon of water before it reaches the pump pickup. You would need over two gallons of additive to remove it, and at that point, fuel would be so contaminated by water and additive that it's doubtful if it would even start.

Changing a Battery on a 2007 Ford Galaxy 1.8 TDCi Zetec. The car is not starting I think due to the battery beind dead. Wanting to replace the battery and looked in the manual to find that it only tells you how to boost the battery using jump leads. Looking under the bonnet, it seems that there is a cowling around the battery that first needs to come off but doesnt seem to want to budge even after popping from the sides and raising slightly upwards. It appears to snag on other things. What a place to put the battery in a car at the back of the engine bay. Any help would be appreciated. Diagrams would be even better.
