Sounds like it is an injector problem, but you may be able to get by without replacing the injectors. If you can get the car to start with high test gas and cleaner, maybe your injectors just need a deep cleaning. When you take the car to get the Lube, Oil and Filter, you may want to ask them to clean the injectors as well, they will use a strong cleaner and a presurized valve to blast them clean. Or, if you prefer, you may simply want to fill your tank with high test, use 2 bottles of cleaner (it won't hurt your engine), and do this 4 to 5 times, this will give them the deep clean they need. If it was your injectors malfuntioning or being clogged, the "service engine soon' light would appear. Or you car would stall in traffic.
