thank you to you both, i will atempt to try this. is it a job that someone with not alot of experience can do. i know i can do the fuel filter as i have done this before on the car. can the fuel pump etc be a job for me or is it a job for an expert.

it is so hard to get these problems resolved and so glad i joined this forum.

have read other posts on the net about similar sympotoms but this is the first time the fuel system has been mentioned.

haha, i know they are not a beast but not a bad car for what it is and does make you smile when driving.
