Ok, got it fixed! bad fuel pump. Finally broke down and took it to a mechanic to have him diagnose it. I had pulled the fuel filter out before, and it was pumping, but not enough pressure. pretty easy change, probably one of the easier I have changed. No problems Bighass79, no offense taken, and thanks for the reply. I am one that likes to figure out and fix things on my own. Normally I can whip this stuff pretty good, but the way it was acting I just didnt think it was the fuel pump. Oh well, never stop learnin, right? The important part is its fixed now, and mamas happy
