I need a real answer to a REAL PROBLEM!

If replacing my fuel filter fixed it for a week or so and then it came back, wouldn't that indicate that it is the fuel filter and there is something getting into it? Where could it all be coming from the fuel tank and where else? How much would it cost to have my fuel tank cleaned out?

i know its not the o2 sensor....
u should check all your spark plugs and fuses...
it may be the tranny.. u may have to replace that ####.....

it happened to me...

and i got a new one..

u should make sure your injectors are good/clean

I have new plugs and wires and if it was the tranny why would the new fuel filter have fixed it for a few days? J/W how much did you pay for a new tranny?

Have your fuel pressure tested while at WOT. I bet you will see a pressure drop when you hit the gas it's the pump.

could be something in the fuel tank that would mess things up try cleanin your injectors my car always buckd at low RPM's until i went to jiffy lube and watched how they clean injectors
1)You take a funnel and attach it to where the PVC valve is (where valve cover is hooked up to intake manifold after TB).

2)Get this stuff called Run smart or ask for the stuff to do it, NOT the stuff that gets put in yur gas tank.

3) have some one rev the gas as you pour the stuff in You will see a big cloud of white smoke *normal* Do it until bottle half empty or depending on the brand read the bottle.

4)yur done shut off car re attach hose idle car for 5- 10min.
