    not the dealer, lol. Go to an exhaust shop and have them check your cat. Make sure that isn't plugged first.

      will get the cat check today, it seem like the engine is running well, hopefully that's where the problem is. I just gave up last night after doing all kinds of test on the car.

        I'm pretty burned out on this car. I just want to get to the bottom of it. So far i've thrown in a couple hundred dollars on it. and it's still doing the same thing. i'm taking it to a shop today and let them worry about it. It's going to cost me some money but it will give me less headache. I never had any problem with this car until now.

            It might be your fuel pump going out. Are you getting any codes for a lean condition? The same thing happened to my mom's van. We changed everything and it would still do it. After we did the fuel pump it ran like new.

              alright ya all! here's the scope, i got the car checked out vanbibber was right on the spot it was the icm and 1 and 4 coil that was bad. Got both of them replaced and the car is runnin' like it was new again. Pretty much it has new plugs, wires, filter, egr valve, coil, and icm. spent over $500.00 but she deserves it. This car never gave me any problems so it's all worth it. Next project is getting the sounds back and thinkin' of putting 20"s but i'm a bit paranoid ever since she got stolen in my driveway. just can't trust anyone anymore. Thank you all for all of your advice.
