Re: 85 4wd wagon random cut out over 3000 rpm

it does seem fuel related . i changed the fuel pump and noticed that it had been weeping so that was part of the problem. it runs much better now, but still has a slight miss under a load around and above 3000 rpm. i'm trying seafoam to see if that clears it up. autozone also suggested using brake c...

yeah. just cuts out, i lose power and have to slow down. i don't have to pump gas or anything like that to keep it going. but i find that i have to drive slower and slower to keep it from happening. that is why i am now suspecting fuel. yesterday, i had to go between 45-50 to prevent the problem.

no it only seems to be on the highway. i don't think it has ever happened in any gear but 5th, and i downshifted to 4th as it got worse, still had the occassional miss. once it starts, it seems to happen more frequent. takes about 5-10 min of highway driving for it to happen for the first time.
