Symptoms:
-Car idols extremely rough, occasionally dies
-I have to push the gas pedal to the floor and I get hardly any acceleration. After I do this, my car usually reaks inside of gasoline
-The car "chugs" a LOT, after it is up to normal speed.
-The exhaust pipe sounds like it's sputtering (for lack of a better word) when I step outside of the car
Anyone had similar issues or have some advice? I'm really hoping this isn't a huge problem. :/
Also, sometimes it will start up and run perfectly fine for a little bit-just as if nothing were ever wrong with it. ?
You guys are so helpful!
I have tried the gumout type stuff, and gotten no results.
I replaced the coil pack about 2 yrs ago, so I sure hope it's not that again.
I believe my O2 sensor may be fowled up now that you mention it, but would this alone cause these symptoms?
