Car runs lean. Spark plugs white.

Fuel filter is clean. Ran BG44k through w 1/8th tank of fuel. No improvement.

Car does not respond to accelerator appropriately and stalls on take off. Dangerous!

Low power. Slight upgrades require downshifting to get RPM up for power.

Mechanic checked timing and vaccum and says both are okay. He says theres a problem with not enough fuel supply.

Car cranks right up every time. Help!
