1989 SOHC running poorly

Recommended Posts

The car has been sitting for a couple months and when I started it it seemed to run and idle fine but when I backed out and went down the street it acted like it was starving for fuel. When sitting in neutral it revs up fine but in gear it seems like it wants to stall out. I replace the fuel filter but did not seem to help. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

That engine is the same as many K cars of the same vintage.

A good shop should be able to fix it.

I suspect it could be a fuel pump, but would make sure of all the tune up parts first, including plug and coil wires, and all filters.
