I have a 1987 Firebird Trans Am , it will idle but if you give it gas it sputters then dies. Fuel filter?



Answers:

My 92 jeep cherokee turns over but doesn't start but the fuel pump is still good any suggestions?

I assume... Fuel injected, and car runs good at idle.

My steering wheel makes a clicking noise when turned full lock to the right...?


Beg/borrow/steal(buy) a fuel pressure gauge. At idle pressure is 25-30psi on multi port/ tuned port. Throttle body injection 9-15psi. Any less = trouble.

Problems with auto transmission in ford mondeo changes gear when it should not then goes as good as gold?


In order:
1. fuel filter (did not get this way over night) performance degraded a little at a time. Should backfire before stalling.
2. Fuel pressure regulator.
3 Fuel pump... usually before they grenade there will be a shrill whining. Turn ignition on without engine running.. pump will prime for 2/3 seconds and shut off.

If we are talking a 4bbl fuel filter...if no better replace the pump.

Fuel filter and possible trash in your gas lines

I have 1988 Chevy 350 TBI. Blew the head gasket and replaced with two new ones. Truck won't start.?

Could be as well as fuel pump pressure.
If the pressure is low it will idle but will not have any get up and go.

Another alignment or sign of something else?

if you car has a carb(not fuel inj) after you replace the inline fuel filter, remove the fuel line where it goes into the carb. use a tubing wrench, or you could possiblity round the nut. with line off remoove the fitting, with a 6point socket and replace the small brass looking filter in the carb. this one is always overlooked.

It may be the accelerator pump in the carb...cracked or broken rubber.

Sounds to me like it could be your air pressure in your tires. Also check and make sure that your valve stem caps are tight.
