Engine Performance problem
2000 Ford Crown Victoria V8 Wheel Drive Type unknown Automatic 102,00 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
Let it get low on gas, fuel light came on, right before turning in for gas, it started missing out. Filled it up, and when get to 30 to about 50 still cutting out. Where would the fuel filter be located. I am sure this is the problem as it started doing this when it was low on fuel. Thank you.
