2003 kia spectra/ fuel problem

By herself - usenet poster

" "

i have a 2003 kia spectea and recently noticed that it has been eating the
fuel like crazy. i dont drive much and when i do and sit in traffic the
car vibrates and shakes and the fan sounds like it comes on as if
overheating but temp gage reads normal. what could this be? could it be a
fuel pump problem?

I just found out that my fiancees 02 Spectra has a recall on the ORVR. Has
something to do with the fuel tank. Don't know if it has anything to do
with your problem, but it is probably worth a call to the dealer.
