82 EFI clogged fuel filter?

dardena · 05-14-2012, 02:55 PM

Hello, I have a 1982 supra LS with the fuel injection. It ran OK until sitting for several weeks, but now it will try to start... the engine "catches" and runs for about a second, then stalls, usually with a couple of backfires.

When I remove the air intake and spray starter fluid, I can keep the engine running, so it must be a problem in fuel delivery.

Anybody have any suggestions as to how to fix this problem... or even what to be looking at?

Thanks,
Terry
