[T3] 1600 F/I has a cough


I think my mistake was pouring fuel injector cleaner in my gas tank, because 
now my recently purchased 70' sqbk has indigestion.  I just had a full 
service tune-up 2 weeks ago and the fuel filter was replaced at that time, 
but the car is acting like it has a clogged fuel filter (i.e. at low rpm's it 
has a tendency to surge and flutter a little like it's not getting fuel).  At 
higher rpm's the problem seems to disappear and reappear from day to day.  
When I give it gas, it seems to go away.  I think I have clogged a fuel line 
or an injector with carbon deposits that became loosened from the fuel 
injector cleaner.  Before I take her into the mechanic I thought I would 
throw it into the list. Any thoughts?
