Hey gang, turning the key is making the engine chug, but must not be getting the gas to get her up and running. I did read over some other threads and its looking like: Fuel Filter, Fuel pump, Fuel injector. Going to go have some fun with the Fuel filter .... does anyone have other ideas what I should be looking for?
Thanks for your time. Il be checking back later

could be spark. coil-packs. plugs or wires. remove a plug and then put it back into the wire, crank the motor over and then touch the threaded part of the plug against the block and see it it sparks. 4-cyl, you can cyl1 and cyl3 on the v6 try all the 3 at the front. no sprak = ingition problem.

Before digging into fuel pump/filter/injectors, also check fuel pressure.
