I forwarded the story more for its entertainment than as a reason of what is causing your car to stall.

If it were mine, I would try to determine why it stalls ..... ie. fuel, electrical or some other problem.

For an example, is it only on one particular incline or any? Or will it stall when you wiggle the ignition key (thinking here a large cluster of keys on the key ring causing the tumbler contacts to move).

If, and only if, it is something in the fuel tank, then get access to the tank via through the fuel sending unit and shine a light into it and check the bottom of the tank. If there is something rolling around you could retrieve it.

Keep us posted,

Haasman
