I'm having sluggish performance (loss of complete power) in lower speeds. Changed out fuel filter, and it works okay for awhile and then starts doing it again. I know it's fuel and I know it's total loss, not just one injector or another because it cuts out completely.
When I take out the fuel filter and physically blow through it I can discern blockage, but I'm having to do this every ten days or so now.
I'm keeping the tank as full as I can all the time, but it's an older vehicle, was parked a long time when I bought it, so I'm wondering if I have so much sediment built up in the tank itself that I just keep plugging it up.
Or, would a semi-plugged fuel regulator act the same as a plugged fuel filter.
I can clear it, but it doesn't hold for more than a week and starts over again.
thanks for your help.
