Lately, my car has been running a bit odd. When I accelerate, the car would sputter. The tach needle would sort of jump up a tiny bit. It's almost as if the car has hiccups. Not only does my car hiccup during acceleration but at stop signs as well. My car stalled earlier due to that. I was wondering if you guys had any similar experiences and have any tips on fixing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.<br /><br />- Tim <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>1FAST89GT</b> <br /><small>Member # 5071</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,5,22,17,21,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> fuel filter maybe <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>archersgt</b> <br /><small>Member # 5177</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,5,22,22,0,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by 1FAST89GT:<br /><strong> fuel filter maybe </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">yeah, my car was ideling really rough and surging, changed the fuel filter and it all stopped and idels perfect now. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>92greenlx</b> <br /><small>Member # 4734</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,5,23,12,9,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> My car sputters too.
