cool
 
Yeah, I think I'll try the filter first because the pump sounds strong to me which I guess that doesn't alway's mean its not getting weak. Plus, like you said the filter and tool is way cheaper. By the way the car has 142,000 mi on it (about time for an over haul or maybe an SRT-4 engine:D) Ive only put about 1,000 mi on it since I got it back in November. Thanks alot, I'll let you know what happens.

Yeah, with that many miles, I'd say change the filter for sure. Never know when (if) it has been done!

So yesterday morning I was headed to court on a bull sh#t assault charge and I tried priming the fuel pump like I had been, and it didn't work.? You think I should still try changing the fuel filter?:confused:

If the filter is clogged or really dirty, it is going to keep fuel from getting to the engine...

Did you have the computer checked for any codes?

Thomas j 01-23-2009 11:44 PM

The only code is a multiple missfire, but it only happens when Im having trouble getting it started. The code goes away after it runs for only a minute or two.

Note the restricted fuel supply line as a possible cause. For example, clogged/dirty fuel filter. Since you got that code, I'd say it is time to start checking off this list!!!
