HEY FELLAS, MY B2200 HAS GOT A PROBLEM, IF I AM SITTING ON A HILL NOT EVEN A STEEP HILL, I PRESS ON THE GAS AND THE ENGINES SHUTTERS, AND THERE IS NO POWER, THEN IT DIES. I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND WHILE ITS BARELY RUNNING KEEP PUMPING THE GAS TO KEEP IT GOING, THEN A MINUTE LATER IT WILL START RUNNING GOOD AGAIN. IT DOES'NT MATTER IF YOU ARE AT A STOP OR AT SPEED. I REPLACED THE EGR VALVE, NEW PLUGS AND WIRES, NEW FUEL PUMP AND FILTER, ALSO THE GAS GAUGE DOES'NT WORK, I DONT KNOW IF THATS CONTRIBUTING TO IT. THANKS SO MUCH!

Possibly fuel contamination. They had a problem with the tank coating coming apart. Also water seperates in a gas tank from the gas and wanders around the tank in pockets. Could be if on a hill it picks it up.
