Fuel starvation?


Recommended Posts

I replaced the fuel filter on my 1986 2.5 Comanche, when it felt like its starving for fuel. But it still acts the same. Under idle and on the gas, it lopes?

What would be the cause of it.

Thanks.

Suggest You buy, borrow or rent a pressure tester and check your actual fuel pressure ( at the test port on the fuel rail ) before you go buying, replacing new fuel pumps. If it is low might just be a dirty strainer , in the gas tank, and not a bad pump.
