Hello everyone and happy New Year!
This year has brought us some trouble with the V-70 with 65K miles. Here's the symptoms. Starts right up, then dies, especially if the gas tank is less than 1/2 full. With a tank at 3/4 full, it starts, and I can keep it going by fluttering the throttle (like in the old days when the choke wasn't working). Once it gets running, seems to operate OK. Thought I'd post here before I did anything. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot,
Oleseahorse V-70 w/ 65K, 90 244 215K, ⏩ 244 160K, 93 244 107K kids cars]
