I think my car isn't getting enough fuel sometimes. Not always but often when I start the car it will immediately drop idle and turn off. Im not sure what it may be; fuel pump, fuel filter? Any ideas? What's the best/cheapest option to go with first?

Thanks in advance,

The cheaper option is to replace your filter first. If it is doing this when the car is cold, it may also be the idle up mechanism.

probably not the filter but i would replace it anyway if it's been awhile...i'd say either the pump or the fuel pressure regulator...

Thank you for resplying. Where is the fuel pressure regulator and do you know how much one may run?

I've replaced the fuel filter, it hasn't been replaced at all.

I know for a fact that it was cutting off even if the engine was hot. But either way, I have noticed it since replacing the filter.

Thanks everyone.

I have the same problem, and I've replaced my pcv, fuel filter, plugs and plug wires and nothing helped. If you figure something out let me know
