Thanks for the response. I'll go get more fuel for it tomorrow. Here is what I have based off the pressure test I ran tonight:

I went to Autozone on my way home and picked up their "loan a tool" the Actron Fuel Pressure Tester and according to the book, it says Fuel Pump Pressure should run between 46-52PSI.

With gauge connected and key in the "On" position the fuel pressure read 52PSI. As I left the key on the pressure dropped and stayed steady at 45PSI.

When I started the car, the pressure read 51-52PSI. As the engine began to chug, the fuel pressure rose to 58PSI.

As I said in the earlier post, the RPMs fluctuated. As they rose and fell, the pressure varied from 50-54PSI. Once the engine warmed, the RPMs leveled out and it began to idle around 700RPMs, the engine held steady at 52PSI.

From my analysis it isn't the fuel delivery unless it is at the injector level but it should exhibit other behaviors (unless bad O rings). Which leads me to either bad gas or faulty vacuum lines. Please let me know any additional thoughts. I'll post again once I have a full tank.

Thanks!
Brian
