When you first start off in your vehicle, it runs fine, then it starts acting like it's running out of gas, which, technically, it is. Because the gas (fuel) cannot pass the filter to the engine.

More likely you need to replace the fuel filter, or your injectors need cleaning. That's what our problem was... injectors, especially. When you have stalling or starting problems. A fuel pressure test will verify the condition of the fuel pump. Like the above answer said, replace the fuel filter before doing anything. That may solve your problem.

Fuel filter is located between the engine and firewall on drivers side. You will need to relieve the fuel pressure from the fuel system before replacing the filter. I have a 1999 Ford Escort so I know this because I have replaced mine.The fuel filter is located on the center of the firewall in the engine compartment about half way down.The firewall is the part that seperates the engine compartment from the interior of the car.
