I turned it off and back on and was still running rough. I revved engine and it seemed fine after like 1500rpm held it on 1500-2000 rpm for bout 10 seconds and came back to normal. Could it be injectors???? Im totally lost on this one. In neutral I can rev up to 5000-5500 RPM no worries. Can Anyone help?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to change fuel filter and put shell or mobile in it and see how it goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
