Advise is needed, from the noble heads of the list. Got off the expressway this afternoon, and the van had been running fine as usual. However, upon stopping at the first light that I came to, I noticed that the idle was up around 1000--1100 rpm.-Huh. Then when it was time to take off, it was like someone had tied a boat anchor to my bumper. Stuffing the throttle to the floor it, was very slow up to 2000--2500 rpm, and then it seeed to pick up rpm rapidly, as usual. And it remained the same until I got home. I thought it might be the fuel filter, so I changed it, but no difference. Any ideas where I should start looking? Your infiniate wisdom wll be appreciated.

Thanks,

Terry
