OK - so I went ahead took out the original fuel filter and there was quiet a bit of dirt/rust/dark particles coming out of it and replaced it with a fram brand to test. I figure it would a least tell me how badly the fuel pump is contaminated. It ran ok for the first couple of miles then it started to stall out on me again. I ran it for another 10 miles or so with no problems and then as soon as I hit the twisty roads it started to act up frequently. Talking to Chris (ntrylvl) who happened to have the same problems a few months ago - the tank needs flushing and resealing as well as cleaning out the fuel lines, replacing the fuel pump and fuel filter.
I'll start there and see what happens.
Now does anyone know of a good place to have my gas tank cleaned up in the San Francisco bay area?
Cheers!!
