When was the last time you changed the fuel filter?

actuallynever, i bought the car 2 months ago but i will check it out thanks for the tip.

Ok forgive me for sounding like a shmuck but were is the fuel filter located?

Good idea to include year and model, engine and trans when you ask questions!!!!!!!???????? Then we can help. Edited by: atfdmike

The fuel filter is located on the surface of the inside of the passenger side frame rail about where the rear door is.... Hope this helps.


I would suggest you check the output of your alternator too. It should be charging at around 13+ volts. Troopers are very likely to have problems if the alt is not working right. Check the grounds and clean them up....one on each valve cover/firewall, one next to battery bracket, one on harness bracket near oil pressure sending units. Probably more but these are the easy ones to find.
