engine missing!!!!!!

Okay, so i apparently got some bad gas and my fuel filter clogged up. I changed my fuel filter and my engine is still missing. I pulled the gas tank and changed the pump and strainer, and it's still doing it. I need help....

is the service engine light on? sounds like you might have a stuck injector (guess) from what your saying. Might stop off at Autozone and have them scan it if it has codes report them here. Might pick up a fuel system cleaner sometimes those work.

If the filter clogged up, more than likely there could be a stuck injuctor as mentioned.

However, have you checked to make sure the plugs and COP's are performing like they should?

I can't help but think that after 6 tanks with sea foam that the plugs are worth a crap now.

I ran it hooked to a computer and the only thing that looked suspect was an o2 sensor acting up. It wasn't bad it would just go downscale every once in a while. But all the cylinders were firing fine, or either all were going out at once. i even put a heat gun and checked all the exhaust ports all were about 500 degrees...... if a plug or coil pack were out it would spit out a code.

you could unplug one injector at a time find the bad one. I hear you can buy complete sets on e-bay for not to much.
