Recently bought my car it's been running great and all of a sudden last night the car started running rough like it's not getting fuel! Almost like bogging!
Change the fuel filter, fuel pumP turns on, all connection made in engine compartment!
The car turns on, but it's like it's gasping for fuel/air!
Was wondering if anybody had any suggestion of maybe what to check for????

Do the basics: check fuel pressure, test the MAF, and look for vac leaks.

My car did this when one of the vacuum lines on the back of the intake came off. It was really hard to find because my car would die before I could make my way under the hood to see where the vacuum leak was. I finally remembered that I could start it from the started solenoid then I found it pretty quick.
