30 seconds

If I open the throttle it runs for the 30 seconds and quits. It go's a little longer if I squirt starting fluid into the K&N filter. So I thinks its fuel related.

The wires are stock and very old. I've ordered wires and a cap from Pelican - That was 10 days ago, It's not like them to be so slow. I'll try the wires when they arrive to eliminate that possibility.

Prior to this problem, the car was running great. The 30 second problem just started. I thought it was the seattle rain grounding the old plug wires but it seems more like a clogged fuel filter.

I'll check the fuel filter next, and the injectors spray, and the Fuel rail. I gas guage slows less than a eigth of a tank.

Come to think of it, 6 months ago it had some trouble and would surge on the freeway, especially going up a grade after it warmed up.
