Quest 6-cyl

The car hesitates, coughs at intervals like it is miss-firing. A throttle clean, manifold clean and tank filter clean have all been performed and still it jolts and appears for a split second like it is going to stall and die. Started just when stopped or idling now is apparent when driving on highway at highway speed. Problem is unresolved as yet.

Noticed gas smell inside and around vehicle for some time even after the recall fix was done. On date of failure, vehicle was hard to start and engine ran poorly with visible smoke from the exhaust. Gas fumes were extremely strong and gas was visible on injector and engine.
