Default misfire problem

hey ppl i am haveing a problem which is starting to annoy it started 3 weeks ago i had a low tank of fuel and i was driving down the freeway and i felt it surging so i pulled off put fuel in it and now whenever i put part throttle or full throttle it will do the same surging thing like i can feel the revs sort of go up and down like its struggling to get fuel i think it may be pressure related so im getting a fuel filter tomorrow and im gonna get a pressure regulator any other ideas has anyone had this prob

btw doesnt use oil got 170000ks on it eb 1993

yeah, whaht he said ^^^ (CRUIZIN EB)

more than likely u sucked up the crap ff the bottom of a the fuel tank..., would certainyl explain the surging if your injectors are gunked up and not spraying rite...

U could either try the injector cleaner u get from the servo/repco/super cheap/burson for about ten bucks or so.. last one i used was spitfire i think, just add it to a full tank of fuel. Or u can have them flushed by a mechanic... have no idea how much that costs though, but u can bet it aint ten or twelve bucks... lol

i just had the same problem in the XF. it was misfiring and wanting to die. even at home under full throttle it was just suttering and didnt want to rev at all.
it was #6 lead, it had broke. replaced that and the problem has completely gone.
