i would check for vacuum leaks at hoses and intake, check distributor cap. when you replaced your fuel filter, did you run the pump and flush out the fuel line while the line was open and filter removed? when i replaced mine in my 89 gmc i flushed the open line and some particles flushed out. also (not to sound like a stupid question, but) did you install the filter in the right direction? years ago i had a 78 monte carlo that was running great and one day it just kept staling, truns out it was just a fuel filter.
