Fuel System Issue- Help
Having a problem with hesitation at low RPM under load. Changed fuel filter and put in some lucas injector cleaner and it went away for a few weeks. Put in another bottle of cleaner and it went away for a while again. Not sure where to turn. Thinking its an injector but which one. 02 with a V10 any help appreciated.

Has the check engine light come on at all? You may have trash in the tank which is getting picked up when the fuel level is low. Have you tried fuel from a different station? A dose of Seafoam or Berryman may better dissolve any debris in the injectors. What did the fuel look like when you dumped the fuel filter?

I agree with TD, try the Seafoam treatment, here is an old thread that describes the Seafoam procedure......

Thanks for the help. It was easy to do and seemed to work. although I didn't get the smoke show. I'll find out thursday when I hook up the camper and head to dover for the nascar race.
