Hi Rob, Fuel filter is as new as the new pump. Filter is the large metal cylinder downstream from the pump. I just filled up with a 91 octane mid-grade gas this morning, and I was at 90 miles from full at the start of the issue. I normally use premium and fill up after 200 to 220 miles (1/4 tank) and average about 18-19.5 mpg. I don't rule out bad gas or a questionable fuel tank. Gotta get to the bottom of this Temp II sensor first, and maybe the fuel pressure regulator.

My '84 would seem to run out of gas at 3/4 tank, a new tank fixed a lot of things. But that was me... > > Rob > >
