Answer
Hi Steve, there are several things that could cause your problem. The first thing you should do when you have drivabilty problems is give the car a complete tune up, its due for one anyway. Then if the problem is still there you should have hooked up to an analizer, this will save you money in the long run, because you wont be buying parts you dont need. I could guess at it but without actually being there it would likly cost you money for nothing. Let me know what you find. Regards, Keith.
