Car Running

[silimond]

THE CAR IS RUNNING!!!! I have fixed the starter problem. However I do have one problem, the car is loosing power. It will start right up....and I will get up to 70mph or so and then I will just loose power or the car will turn off. I crank it immediately and with a little hesitattion it starts up again. I have replaced the fuel filter and it is not loosing power as much.....matter of fact it drove quite well....except once when I let it idle for about 10 minutes. It just stopped running. It did however start right up. Anyone suggestions out there to what could be the problem? Thanks again to everyone who contributed to my starter problem. It was a big help.

If it ran better after you changed the fuel filter, then it sounds like you have gunk/trash in the fuel tank. Next step might be dropping the tank and cleaning it out. You be needing to replace those vent lines on the gas tank anyway...

There are a few threads around here about replacing those lines. A search should pick them up. Good luck.

Even though you just changed the fuel filter check it. Compare it to a new one by blowing through it. After you blow out the fuel if it seems a bit restricted compared to a new one then what Kmack told you is your next step.
