Hi everyone.

My car stalls while driving. It'll do it if I'm stopped or moving. The gas tank is full. It does it intermittently.
It'll start again after a stall immediately most of the time. If it gives me trouble starting I'll let it sit there for 10-30 seconds, maybe crank it a few times and it'll start right up.

Thus far, after two stalls the car won't do it again.

I'm not sure where to start looking for issues here. I have yet to pull codes from the computer because it's raining a lot here in Fla.

Also, how does one determine when the fuel filler cap needs to be replaced on the car? It feels a bit loose/wobbly/abnormal.

I just got back from a trip and the car has mostly been sitting for 3 months. My aunt drove it maybe for 1 week during my absence.

Thank you all for any direction you can give me.
