skipping like the filter is full?

[Daves94XE]

ok guys here was my problem. above half a tank it would run good,below half it ran like it was full of water.1st i pulled the fuel filter off, was clear and could blow through it ez.

2nd i pulled the access door off the fuel pump and noticed the lines rotted into, THESE are ez to change without dropping the tank. changed all 4 lines 1/4 fuel line for the return and supply lines.these were split and leaking.. so check them often!

Drove it, was alittle better

came back home pulled the pump out.. found the strainer was full and was pulling fuel only from the top vent hose. pulled the screen off check all the wires and hoses and clean or replace the strainer with a new one or use carb cleaner. put it back together and runs like a new one. SO when u change the fuel filter check the rubber lines at the pump, and if it still does it clean the strainer
