Driving down road at 50, I feel car lurch down like its in a really big headwind. Hmm, I floor it, just a lot of noise, no response. I shift down, revvs pretty high. Finally, car conks out. And refuses to start, but does putter a lot.

I take my Swiss army knife, and use handle to smack the fuel filter a lot. The primer pump wasn't doing anything, just hissing. I continue to crank and crank, manipulating the accelerator and idle adjustment knob, and finally it comes to life. I drive it home.

Prognosis: Clogged fuel pref filter or main filter..

What do you guys think?

I hope it's nothing major...IP or something. Oh, and oil was fine, antifreeze was up to snuff as well. I figured it was either starved of air or fuel.

I hope its something this simple..
