Could you tell us about your filter and what you found? It is nice to know the conditions of the problem so we know in future questions what might make the same symptoms. (Or something like that....)

Glad you found the problem and it was an easy fix.

Thanks for the reply. I agree with you that 2 months isn't much time to have a filter get clogged. Was it a stock filter?

You know, being a Supporter isn't a bad idea. If you do the 3 year, you get a T shirt and a Bumper sticker. Think about how much money this site just saved you. $90 an hour is the going rate around my neck of the woods for a mechanic to look at things.
I'm just saying....
