I have a 2008 Ford Edge that skips when the accelerator is partially pressed while driving. When I press the accelerator further, the car stops skipping. It does not skip when sitting idle and does not have starting issues. This skipping only occurs while driving.
I have taken it to a mechanic who says it is probably the fuel filter. However, my research tells me the fuel filter on the Ford Edge is a lifetime filter and should not need replacing.
Any suggestions?
