Question:
When my car gets to the half way mark on the petrol counter it starts to lose power. If I put the foot down then it stops. It only ever happens at the half way petrol mark. It has has a fuel treatment (or so said the garage) but that has not helped!
Answers:
what is the best way to loosen a stripped nut and bolt on my car. I have tried wd-40?
I think there is a coup going on in the garage and the lawn mower is trying to take over, that's why your car is losing power. The only answer is to shoot the lawn mower.I changed my 1999 GMC Fuel pump several times what is the solution?
Try to check your batteries or maybe your engine is efficiently burning up the gas in the engine. try have it checked with the advice I gaveWill I damage my manual transmission if I shift through the gears while sitting at a stoplight?
its your battery you need to go to the garage and get someone to look at it.How do you lubricate the chassis of an '89 Geo Metro that has no grease fittings?
change the fuel filters. may also be the lifter pump in the tank. check and clean the whole fuel system. additives wont clean filters.Sounds like it could be a fuel pump problem, what car is it?
Escort, yes it will be the fuel pump i think it is close to the tank on your car so it has to pump the fuel a little distance, when your tank is over half it is ok because gravity is helping to feed the fuel through, but when it starts to get empty there is less to help feed it and the weak fuel pump starts to struggle.

1996 nissan sentra will crank but not turn over?
Your batterie might need changing, get it checked out, i think its summink like £40 to replacedepends what sort of car and age. It sounds like the fuel pump is on its way out, but the fuel gauge doesn't usualy connect to anything else. Take it to a different garage, most will be happy to give you a free quote.
It's possible it's building up a vacuum in the tank, Try taking the filler cap off when it does it again! cos it may be blocked,not a lot else it could be,!!

There could be something wrong with your fuel line, maybe its not long enough... haha, Im a woman, dont listen to me. but seriously. It could be that, or maybe there is a hole in it.... or, big stretch.... your alternator.
one your car if it studders than you fuel injector prob or if you lights dim you have a alternator prob if you turn your car on and it runs then stutters than one of your hoses has a hole and its getting air so its choking you should check it before you take it to a garage they will give you a list of things wrong but some times its always something small like a poped hose or a lose cable try checking yourself if all else fails than take it what do you got to lose
Anyone own a Hummer and have problems with transmission shifting and engine light coming on.?
Sounds like a fuel supply problem, Blocked filter, weak pump, Crap in the fuel tank. Or even the fuel level float sender is faulty and the tank is nearly empty but gauge showing half.A friend had the same problem. The battery was fine. It turnned out to be a defective part somewhere in the electrical system. It took awhile to figure it out but in the end it was the manufaturer who found the problem take it to a well known ford dealership in your area. Let them drive it around the block a couple times to see if they can reproduce the problem, once they can reproduce the problem they can fix it.
