Engine Problems

[justin1987]

Over the weekend I started the Charger up for the first time in 3 or 4 weeks. Once the engine fired up it ran fine. I go in the house for a few minutes and come back outside I notice it is idling really low (200 to 300 rpms). The idle is set around 800 and I've never had a problem with this previously. I get in the car and pump the gas pedal one time and the engine bogs down, the engine sputters, and dies. I crank it over, the engine starts up, still idling around 200 rpms, and dies about 10 seconds later. I repeat this process multiples times. Each time the car runs for about a second less than the previous time. After 8 or 9 times the car won't start at all. I'm not sure where to begin with this problem. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

You're out of gas!... or fuel pump isn't moving it..or float needle is stuck closed. (or your choke is closed)

YEP.. and the cylinders would probably be full of gas...

I had the same problem 2 day ago, first start up in 2 months. Float needle stuck.

or needle is stuck open.

This was my thought.

Have you opened the hood?

Have you opened the hood?

Is that the thing that covers the engine?

Thanks! I have plenty of gas. Must be a stuck needle. I appreciate the help.
