first you can try to pull the codes the cel is throwing...

next you can try to separate your 1 paragraph into multiple ones to make it easier to read...

since you already have the car at a mechanic, why don't you have them see what's wrong instead of telling them to check things you think might be wrong...

Is your car completely stock? The same thing happened to one of our customers when he thought "larger injectors would give him more power". The car ran so piss rich it would hardly run at all.
