2001 Saturn SL2 Automatic 70,700 miles. Hi, I have a 2001 Saturn SL2 that starts and the radio comes on with all the lights but then immediately stalls. I have been told it might be a clogged fuel filter or the fuel injector. Is it possible that it is one of those two things?

To nail the fuel filter you have to do a fuel pressure check before and after the filter-do a fuel pressure check to determine the actual fuel system pressure.

Could also be a problem with the ignition switch and ignition components.
