2012 Ford Focus titanium

Asked by Lollipod Nov 01, 2019 at 04:03 PM about the 2012 Ford Focus Titanium Hatchback

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

When I put gas in my car it starts shaking until I
start driving. Is anyone else having this problem or
know what is causing this? I’ve tried different gases
because I thought that might be it but it does it with
all. Does anyone with this car have a certain gas
that it works well with?

If it only happens after a fill-up? Check your evap system. Filling up the gas tank stirs up the fumes in gas tank. Generally the fumes shouldn't be added to engine, at idle, only higher rpms. How long since a tune-up? any applicable trouble codes? Just my opinion.

I just got the car, it was prepared. The engine was giving me catalytic converter code, I replaced it after cleaning it. The light went off and now it’s back on. It doesn’t only happen after full ups but that’s When it for sure happens.
