hi

i 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 cold drove off after and its was sputtering quite noticible

I made it home I swap to new spark plugsdrove around but still the same problem

ideas i have are:dirty fuel filter?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!!!!!

probably a nooby question from a noob but did you test your injectors and/or the compression?

An injector can go bad in 5 years. Also a car can run on three, even two cylinders.

All of those options you sugested sound like they may fix it, but rather then throwing parts at the problem and wasting money you dont have, investigate and test the systems to see which one is fauly. Is it idling rough? When does it sputter? All the time? Acceleration only?

And please, if you expect to recieve help on any forum, using proper spelling and grammar would be most appreciated. Required on most forums. Modified by Full Street at 5:59 PM 12/15/2008
