    this can be caused by a faulty air flow meter, check the plug and that the sensor isnt dirty
    the fuel filter is under the floor in front of the petrol tank, whilst under there check the various rubber fuel hoses for any kinking or signs of rot, these hoses will eventually burst, remembering the high petrol pressure

    allow a while for the fuel pressure to drop before undoing any fuel hoses or you can get sprayed in the eyes
