    vacuum hose leak... possibly a loose intake connection between the filter and the throttle body... check and make sure the trap door on the afm moves freely when pushed... always check all the easy stuff first.

    ok, have you had any loss in power? freeway speed/power still good? if it was a fuel filter, you would notice it would have a lack of power as if it was running out of fuel.

    the other issue could be it having clogged injectors... or an injector or two that are not flowing well...
