Hi

I would look at tuneup parts, fuel filter, air filter, I would check Fuel pressure, o2 sensor and have it hooked up to a scaner and have the sensors checked.


If you have further questions please post back. If this helps, please Accept

Reply to Red's Post: how do i check the fuel pressure and/or what tools do i need to do this or how much does it cost to take it to a mechanic? do I do the same thing with o2 sensor? But i try the tune up stuff first. I got spark plugs, I will get the other tune stuff when i get paid and then give an up date, can i do that? do i have pay another $8 to talk to again? I don't know cause iam new at this.   CASEY
