RE: [DML] Acceleration issue

Dan, A fuel filter may need to be changed, because it may be adding to a
fuel distribution problem, but it sounds like the warm up regulator may be
going bad.

Subject: [DML] Acceleration issue

Hello all,

I notice that SOMETIMES when I start my car from cold I have a lag in
acceleration resembling a misfire. This only lasts for about 30
seconds. I recently replaced the original fuel accumulator and about 2
months ago I noticed a few grains of dirt in the fuel filler that more
than likely made in into the tank despite my best efforts to clean it.
Would this cold acceleration problem indicate I need to change my fuel
filter? I'm thinking maybe some of this dirt and parts of the bad fuel
accumulator diaphragm have made it into the filter. I know the car is
hungrier for fuel when cold, so maybe this is a good place to start...
Any thoughts? Thanks!

Dan
