hii had sum heating problems and when i though i had it all fixed drove to work no problem 30 mins.

still i think i need to make sure i have no bubbles on the system.------------------------\

so i came out 7 hours after go in the car turn it onand it started rough and it was sputtering i let it warm up thinking it was too colddrove off after and its was sputtering quite noticible

I made it home I swap to new spark plugs and fuel filter!drove around but still the same problem

ideas i have are:

dirty maf? really?bad timing?cold start plug went bad?

but i cant just spend money like crazy because im not in that position right now. i just need it fixed i have work tomorrow Thank you!!!!!

clean your maf, check and make sure your TB is clear from carbon........

if those dont correct it, check for vac leaks

could be your FP dying, timing, dirty injectors, air filter, fuel filter, or any number off things.

the first 3 mentioned are cheap or free to fix

well I changed that also,and i checked for vaccum leaks 2 times and pretty much everything its connected right.

I also sprayed and cleaned the maf with brake cleaner it felt better but the problem still there.

I would have to lean more to this being an injector not working properly.
