Sadly, this new tube made no difference, if anything my car runs worse. When I'm cruising, then push the accelerator to the floor, the car bogs terribly.

I did find a small vacuum leak, which I have fixed and will see if that helps.

Cap and rotor are only 40,000 km old, so I don't think that is the problem. Maybe an intake manifold leak, but I can't hear any sucking noise. They are a pain to remove so I put that off for today.

There is a faint fuel smell when I pop the hood after driving, but I can't see any fuel leaks per se.

Maybe I'll try the fuel filter, although I find that very unlikely.
