Hi everybody, need some help. I recently drove my m35a2 on the interstate, and it acted like the engine was cutting on and off... It was after running it wide open on the interstate for about 10 min. When I first stopped, it shut off completely after idling. It took a while to get it to start again. After letting it sit a while, it still took a while to start (not normal) but ran fine for around 10-15 min. on the road, got into 5th for a while, and same thing happened.
I did recently install a Westfolk secondary spin-on fuel filter, which might have something to do with it... Maybe it's sucking air in, or I might have the wrong filter on it? Fuel starvation? What's really confusing me is it takes a while for the problem to show up. Once the problem starts though, it does not go away until it's shut down and sits for a while.
It seems to get a lot worse under full pedal down in 5th, struggles to get to 40mph.
Filter is a Napa 3352, 6 micron.
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I would love to get it back to it's previous go anywhere running great performance!
