Okay, my car is running fine and the fuel filter was changed a couple years ago. When I first start it up, it dies UNLESS I hit the gas. It acts like the older carbs where you had to give them gas or they would go low idle, then die. Even if I am at the store and come out and start it, it still will die at first. Once it picks up on the idle, it doesn't die at stoplights or whatever. Hmmm... I thought it might be the fuel pump at first because it is a little sluggish off the line. Not horrible, just not instant. Once I'm up to speed, it's all good though. Ideas??
