heat will be a contributing factor hot gas heat of day hot roads and a weakining pump as the pump gets hotter with no way to cool off it will show a drop on the meter a friend just went thru this he changed the filter 3 times and the pump once the pump was the problem it had the same symptoms you described with yours snaggletooth i also went thru it in the suburban 2hrs. from the house not fun
