Sputtering, missing going along ok then all of a sudden car chugs like itis running out of gas; i try to rev it a bit/try to get gas into the system (it has plenty of gas)but it continues to slowly die. let it sit with motor off for couple mins, start it----it goes ok for 1/2 mile or mile then does same thing again. this whole senario happened 3 times fri eve. belts not loose; found no loose grounds tho will look again; going to put injector treatment in tank and see if that does any good. any tips would be appreciated. thanks
