i changed the fuel filters. but i only drove out west of town were there is some low hills and i thought it was still acting up.
i took Forced direction to check around the turbo and i checked the EGR. it checked ok as to function on the mity vac, then checked the recirculation? valve. it wouldn't pull a vacuum so i block the line to it.
last night my son called from Socorro with a flat and flat spare (college boy!!) so i headed down with the air tank. car ran wonderful with the cruise on 85 all the way. only one hill but speed didn't vary one mph all the way.
thanks for the ideas guys,
roberto
