Question type: Maintenance & Repair

1 Answer

That is a difficult question to answer as there a numerous things that could cause this. A lot depends on what kind of maintenance has been performed, when, what etc. Could be anything from fuel pump, to fuel filter to fuel injectors or frankly many other issues. Without more information it is really hard to give you a simple answer, I'm sorry.
