If you are getting 4-4500 RPM from the motor you are probably getting enough fuel. Has the transmission totally warmed up? My Saturn will not go to OD until warm.
The engine was fully warm, had been running for about 2 hours.

Have the same year so check the COP Coil on plug. Have replace mine and that what it did , just like yours. It was # 4/5 cops. Took the dealer 4 hours to decided it was breaking down under load. Check the heater hose that runs to the passenger side rear of engine and if see if wet, replace hose and put on a couple feet of wire loom split up and all the way down till touching engine. Now that I know, it is easy to check. There were no codes. Remove the COP and use a spark plug wire and insert between the COP. Then use your old timing light and connect to spark plug wire and watch the light. Drive it and with helper watch the light. It will stop firing if bad. Dealer was watching a frequency meter at $125 an hour.
I think I stumbled upon your thread when searching on google for this issue. I think I continued on searching because my high hopes prevent me from allowing it to be that lol. IIRC, you had to replace the coil, and add a longer coolant hose?

I replaced the fuel filter on my 2000 V10 a couple weeks ago. Fuel from outlet was clean. I dumped the fuel from the inlet - Oh My! Crud. V10 has 18,500 miles.
I have the new fuel filter in hand, plan on tackling that tomorrow morning. Any tips on disconnecting/installation? I am prepared for some gas to drip from the line, I do plan to raise the front of the coach about 6 inches to try to save as much as possible, or is this just not necessary?
The coach has just over 90,000 miles, and while I have only owned it for about 8 months, I have no idea when its last fuel filter service was.
I had a fluid dump in the fall, oil, coolant, trans fluid and filter, overlooked the diff oil and fuel filter.

I would check the air filter first,,, There may be a mouse nest in the air intake tube.
First thing that came to my mind.
Air filter check will be done right after fuel filter. Would this nest be before or after the filter? I imagine if it was pro-filter, it would trigger a check engine light due to airflow sensors?
