I have an 87 accord, 2l carb. with auto tranny. For the last three winters it has been stalling while driving, mostly on hills and under load. My fuel tank had a leak in about half way up so I kept her below half. However, if I filled it up, the car ran great. This only happens in cold weather. In summer the car runs great. Two months ago i replaced the fuel tank. Now the car stalls with a full tank as well. I took the car to a wash bay and sprayed the engine compartment and under carriage, then i replaced the coil, and then put one bottle of carb cleaner in the tank, and half a bottle straight down the carb. For three weeks the car has run great. Now the problem is back. I hosed down the engine compartment and undercarriage again and poured more cleaner down the carb but it hasn't worked. The last few days the car has been very hard to start and it is idling at1800rpm when warm. any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike
