Default Stalling Problem Please Help

1988 Anniversary The car just stalls out. After a few minutes it will re start and short while latter(a mile or so) it stalls again. Seems to get harder to restart the longer I try driving it. Could this be the fuel filters????.

You need to put a fuel pressure guage on it, if you don't have one buy one, about $40. at Autozone (mandatory tool for these cars). A fuel filter could be the problem, or an ignition module, or injectors.

1. change filter
2. get a FP guage
3 Have AutoZone check the Ignition module

Those are the three things I'd do in order.

definitely need the pressure gauge. my 89 was doing that and it turned out to be the fuel pump. you need to see what the fuel pressure is when it stalls.
