Hi,
My car stalled out. It would turn over but would not fire. I hit the gas tank the next day, it started and I made it home where i let it run for about an hour. One hour later after shutting it off it would not start. I figure it's the fuel pump but could it be a badly plugged fuel filter? Also, is the access to the pump through the trunk?
Thank you!
