Hello, If I thought it was a fuel issue, I'd check fuel pressure first thing. You need a fuel pressure gage., if your going to work on your own vehicles.

Can you check for codes? Some of the national brand autostores will check codes for free. It just sounds like the system is going lean for some reason.
