Q: Car does not want to start after fueling.
Whenever I get gas, I have trouble starting my car up. The more gas I get the more attempts it takes to turn it on. The car just revs up and the engine doesn't start. It can take 1-4 tries before it turns on. Once in it acts perfectly fine until I need to refuel it again.
My car has 71000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
