Sound like a fuel filter?

The past week my car's been runnning really crappy. It first started with a bad tank of gas but I think its more than that. I have since put good stuff in with injector cleaner but no improvement. I can barely take off without nearly stalling, and pulls on and off in each gear. I've checked the plugs wires and they seem fine the only other thing I can think of is the fuel filter or the fuel injector cleaner making it run this way. I was still able to get up to 80 on the freeway, it just took longer. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Dave

You could have changed your fuel filter in the time it took you to make this post. I suggest that you go and do it if you even suspect it is bad.

I'd second the vote for the fuel filter. If you haven't changed it in the last 20,000 miles, it's due.

I dunno, mine's usually quiet. I can't ever hear it.

Let us know if that fixed it.
