Yes new gas shocks on the lift gate will fix your problem. I had the same problem on my 2005 Pacifica and when it hit my head- I came up with the solution.

Good Luck,
Ray

SOURCE: car runs great then stops like its starving for gas, let it sit for couple hours then it starts up again

Check the ignition module, and fuel pressure when the trouble is present. Those are the two things on Neons that cause this problem

SOURCE: Why does it sputter at low speeds and now is stalling out after warming up. Could this be because I let it run low on gas and I need to get a gas treatment?

Amanda: When was the last time the Gas Filter was changed? ...Also has the Distributor rotor been changed? The problem sounds like a clogged fuel filter...Changing the Rotor is a $5 good idea...See photos below...The filter and rotor can both be bought for $20...Once the filter is changed, i would suggest adding a can of SEAFOAM...Cost is $9 a can at most auto part stores...Pour it in the tank the next time you fill...It's an excellent internal cleaning product...

It sounds like your timing belt may have failed due to the heat.

My 2011 mustang has 55 thousand miles on it and 10 grand in upgrades from a great mech shop iam out of town and drove thru some water on the road now it spits and sputters at high rpms and will stall

you may have poor ignition wires that need to be replaced or a bad electrical connection that is affected by water either for the ignition system or the fuel injection system. just some places to look.

05 taurus spits and sputters on startup when cold

This can be caused by a problem in the fuel pressure check valve of the fuel pump. Have a pressure leak down test run by a shop, if the system is losing pressure then the pump assembly must be replaced. The fuel pump is located inside the gas tank and is electric

5letting the car running for 20 minutes. After driving the car for 10 minutes more the car was turned off then started 5 minutes later. Car stalled 3 times when trying to start it and acted as though it...

My first guess would be that you have a bad fuel filter. Once a car sits for a while, all the sediment in the filter settles to the bottom, allow fresh fuel, when you first start it, to travel over it to the engine. After five minutes of run time, the sediments have stirred enought to clog the filter. But at high RPM's, there's enough vaccuum from the engine to pull it through the clog, which is why you were able to keep it running only after holding the pedal to the floor. The fuel filter would be an inexpensive first try.
If this does not fill your problem, go to Jiffy Lube and ask for a fuel injector flush, but that is costly.

Spit and sputter/2004 PT Cruiser

Check for fire to the coil pack. These have a tendency to go bad on these cars. Could be a cam or crank sensor, these also go bad. If you haven't changed the plugs in 30K, this is due also, wires every 60K. May need to actually get it hooked to a machine to find out for sure.
