How to Fix:
1
Replace clogged fuel filter or malfunctioning fuel pump.
2
It's important to use the appropriate fuel, per your car manufacturer's recommendations.
3
Follow fuel filter replacement intervals.
4
If your engine sputters only after being shut off, your carburetor may be in need of adjustment or cleaning.
A clogged fuel or air filter can make your engine sputter and your acceleration lag because the engine is not getting enough fuel or air, respectively. The combustion chamber needs the correct amount of air and fuel in order to generate combustion efficiently.
