Best Answer

The first thing I would look at is the fuel filter. The fuel filter is located toward the rear of the vehicle, underneath by the gas tank. A new filter is about $15 and can be a little messy to change and a bit of a pain if you have never done one before. You can tell if it is bad by blowing through it when you have it off. A new filter has no restriction, if you can hardly blow through the old one then it needs to be changed.
