Low idle stalling after fueling up
Hello, I have a 06 Malibu LT 2.2L. I will fill up until the fuel pump shuts off. When I start to pull away the RPMs will jump up and down and will stall out unless I keep the foot on the gas. If I keep my foot on the gas and get on the highway I will not have any issues, but if I drive around down and start and stop it will stall out after I let off the gas. I also found out that if I leave the gas cap off after filling up, there are no issues with it stalling out. Thanks!
