Guest 1950SuperPDX Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 So check this out. Was driving this morning on the freeway about 55-60mph and it felt it hesitate for a second, then i let off the gas and then slowing accelerated and it acted like it was loosing power, and felt like the tranny way slipping and just not going. So I managed to baby her home and stop and get a new coil on the way home also. Installed the new coil and took her for a spin, no problems at all....until tonight, I decided I better take her up to 50-60mph and she did it again...acted like the tranny was slipping and felt like it had a real heavy load, so I thought well maybe it could be as simple as a fuel filter. Sure enough my 1st filter in line is almost totally clogged!! Attached is a pic...(i will be changing that out tomorrow!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron65 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Eek...you may want to consider dropping that tank and cleaning it out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 1950SuperPDX Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 yea i think what I'm gonna do it keep changing the filter until all that crap is out of it. I changed the tank in my 52' chevy and that was a hassle..so we'll see how bad this filter gets. I drove around yesterday and so far its clean so maybe that was it. That one had been on there since November Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron65 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Sounds good to me...as long as that filter is in a nice accessible spot, why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
