Correct. But its dark out now, so go open the hood and crank that bitch up. Lightshow = problem, no lightshow = look at wires tomorrow. lol

If the filter was dirty " had stuff in it" and now its doing it again.... sounds like you need to drop the tank, clean the tank out, clean the pickup screen/replace it. And put another new filter on. If you continue to run around with a clogged up pickups screen. You will burn the pump up....

had the same problem with my car.it had trash in the tank.it would show good fuel pressure when i checked it ,but after a few mins of driving it would drop like a rock.i pulled the tank,and the sock/little screen on the end of pump was clogged up.i learn just because you have pressure does mean it has enough flow.

This is the first thing something should learn if they plan on working on a fool injection vehicle
