Stuttering and Stalling (1 Viewer)

[InsanityIsBorn]

So my 88 Fj62 is having a few problems. When ever I flex it out, it starts to stutter and die. at first I thought it my be my fuel lines or pump because I would be at some odd angle. But then I was trying to soften my springs a little so I parked on two wheel ramps. One under the front passenger side wheel and one under the rear driver side wheel. I still had the same problem and my cruiser was perfectly level D). I have been told by a few people that this could be my fuel filter. Does this seem right? or what else might it be?

thanks for the help

If the problem is related to suspension flex, but not whether the frame is level, then I would start to suspect a grounding problem. Check all the ground points for the engine and transmission. Unbolt them, clean the contact points and bolt them back on.

That might be a possibility, but when it starts to stutter, I can give it some gas and it will stay running, it just seems to not be able to hold a good idle. If I keep the rpms up at what the idle should be, the truck will stay running... could this still be a bad ground somewhere??

thanks again
