Replaced fuel level sensor after it went bad. After replacing sensor the car ran fine for a few days. Refueled the car, and it began to buck, and kick, and stall. Code came up for bad evap purge valve. Changed it out, and saw a slight improvement. Made it one refuel without issue then the problem came back. Changed the purge valve out again.... issue got better then worse. Changed out the fuel pump, cleaned O ring seat, and Changed out O ring, Changed evap sensor out, and ran fuel system cleaner through a few times in case the issue was at the injectors.
Will update at 300,000 miles after the engine rebuild to see if that fixes it. I did record some data from the failure to start at the pumps. Engine stalled with 0% commanded evap purge (the entire time), 90.588% fuel level input, 325 RPM peak without additional throttle give, ignition timing advance #1 cylinder 1° intake air temperature was 73.4°F (23°C), intake manifold absolute pressure 28.054 inHg, and the coolant temperature stuck around 156°F (68.8°C) I'm open to suggestions here, and will update when the new fuel cap gets here in case by some random miracle that's what caused this issue. I'm also waiting for a new fuel pump locking ring. I'm going to figure this out, update the post and hit another 300,000 miles.
