I Need some help, running like crap after fuel filter change
#11
Maybe the o-ring got messed up when installing the new filter? I'd pull it all out and check the regulator as well. You also might want to check the fitting under the tank and where it connects inside the tank. Did you have a problem bending the arm to get it back in or did you finagle with it for a while?
One thing I just noticed is the rubber end by the fuel pick up (see pic) looks boogered up. could this be my issue?

I think I have everything put together correctly. Here are a few pics, take a look and see if anything looks wrong.
If all looks good, I will reassemble, but since I have the bottom convoluted tube out, I will fish that up through after I get the top portion on, that way I will be sure that I'm not pinching it some how.

I checked the regulator, wasn't real sure what I was looking for, but found that the large O ring was not in correctly (I have no idea how that even happened). It's kinda boogered up, so I put another one in there. The ones I have are a hair bigger, or a hair smaller, the larger one would not seal, so I put the smaller one in for now. I will probably go to the dealer tomorrow and buy the correct one.

I put everything back together, went to fire it up, and it wouldn't start. Just my luck. I went back over everything and found that I neglected to hook the hose coming from the tank to the injectors. . . . . .Whew, once I saw my bone head move, she fired right up and runs as it should!
What an ordeal for such a simple job. I had this thing apart and back together more times then I want to admit. I guess the positive in it all is that I can change out a fuel filter in about a half hour now.
