Studder in car?
OK i just got my car back from the shop after having a little incident. The tank was full and i had put 89 in it. it sat for about 11 days and when i got it back there is sort of a studder in the motor. When i give it gas there isnt constant power, it seems like it cuts out a little and bogs then picks up then kind of bogs again a little bit. I dont know if its detonating/bad gas, or what else it could be. The reason it was in the shop was for a new radiator (only motor damage anyway)
anyone have an idea of what it could be?

Dont understand what that means. New radiator and some motor damage? I would maybe take it back to the shop who worked on it and tell them it isnt running right. Maybe they forgot to hook something back up?

Chances are the car sat still for so long that the trash in the gas tank had time to settle and it was sucked into the fuel filter when they restarted the car. That would be the first thing to look into simply because its probably gonna be the most cost effective peice to start with.

Yeah... didnt see this one. If you had a damaged motor then you might wanna take it back to them and let them know it isnt running right.

Where about is the fuel filter? I dont have a lift here at my house so i would like to know where to look to get at the thing to jack up the car. I looked underneath but didnt find much. Thanks
