I went to give someone a jump start today and when i popped y hood my air filter had fallen out of the rubber hose so all the air it had been sucking in was not filterd. I think it may have been like that for about a month at least because i remeber hearing a whistle a while back but didnt think any thing of it. Any way i know it has sucked in gobbs of dirt from the fields by my house and on my way to school. I have noticed it has been stalling in trafic and has been takeing a few cranks to start. Im was allready planing on doing a full tune up next week any way. But would that explain my stalling and hard startS?

 

Id run some upper cylinder lube n cleaner through it. Can of junk you let the car suck up through a vac line.

 

I was planing on getting the gm top end cleaner. By chance do you have the part number on it at all?

 

Have no idea. But napa sells 3-4 brands that do the same thing.
I hate dealing with the dealer for stuff.

 

drain and flush your oil man
my frind had a pulsar nx that he ran with no air filter and it locked after a year. its not so bad in the snow for no filter but in the summer theres loads of dust in the air

 

That is not good at all.
I would get that upper cylinder lube but first spary some carb cleaner in there that should help some.

 

Whats upper cylynder lube? Is it like the top end cleaner? Could this explain my stalling when im in stop and go traffic and brakeing allot it only stalls when i do allot of brakeing and surges like a vacume leak almost. Also it seems to have a hard start now

 

That top end cleaner is better than carb cleaner but it will have some lube in it. but upper cylinder lube is just that., like mixing oil into the gas. You can find some called upper cyl lube or use good old marvelous mystery oil in your gas after you do the top end cleaner.
