[DML] Re: Running Rich!?

["Marv Hein" <marvhein@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It might be as simple as your air filter.

My car would pull the "almost die" stutter once a trip if I didn't let 
it warm up for a minute or so before driving.  I'd add gas to 
compensate for the hesitation and it would be fine for the rest of the 
trip. 

Now that I've changed my air filter, which was really cruddy, there is 
just the barest of hesitations at the old "almost die" point, the car 
idles better, smells better and has significantly more power.

Easy to check anyway...
