I have an 86 El Cameno with 4.3 V6. Purchased some gas that clogged the fuel filter. I have changed the fuel filter. I can't get engine to rev up or idle, it only runs if pumping accel pedal, but boggs when throttle is opened over quarter throttle. Fuel pump only seems to run for a short time (3sec.) after cranking. Doesn't continue to run with key in on position after cranking. Rechecked filter to see if it had clogged again but it is fine. I used pump as stated above to run about a gallon of fuel into clean drain pan to inspect for dirt, fuel is now clean. Any sugestions??
