Well, while parts are shipping, I decided to do some work on the interior over the weekend. Cleaned carpets, fixed hatch lids, detailed engine bay and such.
Then I decided to take the care for a drive Sunday, and it would hardly get up the street after backing out of the drive. I think the fuel filter must be clogged. Is this hard to replace? Can I get one at Auto Zone? I may try and replace the filter tonight if AZ stocks and I don't need a lift.

Fuel filter is super easy. I used to carry spares in my '83 GSL and did one at the side of the road.

I ordered one today. OEM. 41$. Should I have just gotten a cheaper aftermarket one? Can you clean these things? I have a feeling this one is going to get clogged too. I think my tank has stuff in it since the last one got clogged...unless it wasn't new maybe?
