ADVANCE PROBLEM IN A 2000 KIA SEPHIA AUTOMATIC Published by manual-mecanica
Hello everyone, I'm writing about my problem. I have a 2000 Kia Sephia 1.8 automatic. About a week ago, I ran out of fuel because the fuel gauge stopped working. I tried to start it a couple of times with the tank empty until I realized it was the fuel. I put in 5 gallons and kept driving until I reached a hill. The car started jerking and wouldn't go very far. I turned it off, and it ran normally for a few kilometers, but it stalled three times. That's what happened.
Now, when I took it to get the fuel pump replaced, I noticed the tank was full of sediment; it looked like mud or dirty water. They cleaned it, but the problem persists. They also checked the mass airflow sensor, and they said it was working fine. I should mention that I've done a minor tune-up (spark plugs, filters, belts). Could the injectors be clogged? I would appreciate your answers.....

That's what it mostly points to; you are advised to clean the injectors.
