I was driving the freeway the other day when my car hit 60 it started to sputter and slow down to like it wasnt getting enough fuel. and i coundnt get it to go any faster than 15. i am planning on changing the fuel filters but i wanted to know if there was any thing else to check as well. and yes i searched, im going to check the venturies as well as the pcv, cap and rotor


thanx

i think i know what you have to do, you have to get a new car. ;)

yeah you have a good start...i changed my fuel filters and you can feel like the engine gives you more power, after i changed my fuel pump since the filter riped and it was sucking all the dirt...just got a junkyard one with 121k miles on it. my problem was that the carb would not give me power so i changed it also.

Fuel pump, or maybe booster venturi but usually once the secondary booster goes you'll see a drop in upper rpm perfrmance 3,000 rpm +

not just at 60 mph.

also check your coolant.

thanks for the help it turned out to be the secondary booster was way loose. now the only problem is what the f*ck did i do with the keys?
