Stirred up dirt in tank. Now barely runs
I changed the fuel filter an in the process most of the fuel tank was drained. Today I just drove to the gas station and the car was running perfect.
I filled up started the car with no problems.
After I went to exit the station and the car stumbled and died. I managed to get it home after about 20 minutes (which is a litteral mile away) and I needed to restart the car over a dozen times.
I am pretty sure I stirred up a lot of crap at the bottom of the tank and that is why my car started running so poorly.
My question is what do I do now? Do I just need to let the crap settle? Replace the new fuel filter with another one? Drain the tank (which right now is completely full)?
