I have a 91 geo prism and the problem I'm having is this. When I let off the gas the car wants to die out and also when I go 25 to 35 MPR it idles really rough and wants to die out as well. When I am going faster than this or on the highway it doesn't do it as much. From what information i can find it looks like it might be the fuel filter. Can anyone tell me just where the fuel filter is or if you have any suggestions please let me know. Thanks.

Thanks for the response. I found the problem and it was a easy fix. The ground wire was not completely attatched.
