Three days ago my car started stumbling anytime that I began entering boost. This coincided with me nearly falling alseep on the way home from SF (to Sacramento) and going way to low on fuel in the tank. Wasent vapors but prolly into the tank trash.

What would cause the stumble and difficulty entering boost (sluggish spool) that could be caused by tank trash or does it sound like something unrelated?

Im replaceing pump-filter-line-rail-inj-afpr-return shortly but driving the car is like NA at lower RPM.

Thats another thing, its fine at cruizing and high RPM and my gas mileage has IMPROVED (maybe because im scared to boost)

Thanks for any help
(anyone want to help me instal my pump-filter-rail-inj-afpr-return? have beer!)

Since you have DSMLink, look at your O2 Voltages and fuel trims as your entering boost where you have problems. Also, if you have a cockpit fpr gauge or way of monitoring your fuel pressue, verify your boost:fp is correct. Injector duty cycle or pulse width will also help. Definetly sounds like either a fuel problem, or a boost leak.

Does your 12 year old work for beer? I can do Pepsi or apple juice.

I need a place where I can rain gas and someone to help point me in the right direction when I do something STUPID.

I'd start by checking the obvious such as boost leaks and spark plugs + wires.

I'll help you install the other stuff if you give me the AFPR! Naw, j/p. I'd be glad to help, but am in an apartment, so don't really have a place to work.

Exactly, there's not a lot you can REALLY screw up without opening up the long block.
