Hello,

My 2002 Eurovan just started becoming difficult to start after I refill the tank. It also pops more when refueling as well. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Could you please explain this "pops more when refueling " phenomenon?

without knowing much here, my guess is that you have flooded your charcoal filter by overfilling the tank at some point.

Try replacing your Evap Purge Valve. It's right on top of the engine and easy to replace.

CEL illuminated or stored DTC's?
