Well heres the low down.... I have a 94 Celica GT. About 2 months ago it starting giving me trouble with starting up. Usually it would be after work on a hot day and when I was low on gas. In the morning it would crank up fine. So I replaced the Fuel Filter. Seemed to work fine for a while then the trouble would start up again. So I went to the Fuel Pump and changed that out. Now it starts up fine but its jerking like a misfire (changed the spark plugs about 4 months ago so I know its not that) when I drive it and actually made the check engine light come on. Questions: Could it be the strainer on the fuel pump as I put the old one back on the new Pump? Or is this a new problem??

Could be a vacuum leak causing the high idle and leaning out the mixture too much causing it to run so weak.
