your fuel pressure might be too low....what was in the car originally.

also, fuel pump might just be dying.

my car cuts off if i have a lil under 1/4 a tank and i stop really fast.. damn non baffled gas tanks!!!

originally it the stock Q jet, I took the fuel pump out last week and i had a bent pushrod so i replaced it seems like the fuel pumps fine other than the fact that it leaks oil out of the Diaphragm
