check the gap on your plugs, and the resistance on your wires... sounds like a misfire to me......

could have a shitty fuel filter, but go w/spark for now...

also, prolly wouldnt hurt to shoot sum t/b or carb cleaner on your t/b, the butterfly plate, and inside the intake mani....

good luck meng.

see i thought of that already.. last jan i had to replace the injectors so i took my manifold off and cleaned it with throttle body cleaner.. i also had to do a tune up cause it wouldn't run after that.. such as coil pack, wires, plugs. still did it. i had since then replaced throttle position, map, engine colant, air temp sensors and still does it... dunno what it is and yeah i did replace the fuel pump and sensor as well... if you think you may know any other ideas let me know.. possible exhaust manifold cracked??? or sticky butterfly throttle??? would that do it i have noticed time to time my throttle seems a lil difficult to press in
