posted by  someone claiming to be will on  Mon Apr 30 13:19 CST 2001 [RELATED]

hey brickboard,

i was trying to remove some very old gas from the system today and when i removed the fuel filter, i tried to start the car just to see, and it fired up and ran with the little fuel in the hoses and engine. when i reattached the filter and i guess more gas?? the car would not start up. i again removed the fuel filter and what ever once again was in the hose from the filter to engine and in the engine caused the engine to run. is this no start problem the old fuel filter or is it something to do with the mixture?? if it was a clogged filter wouldnt i not have gas getting into the engine? thanks, will
