      The mechanic replaced the plugs and wires, that didn't solve it.

      What he did do was replace an Oxygen sensor. Apparently it was "fickle",
      and sometimes worked, and sometimes not.

      Right now, it's much, much, much better.

      It stalled when it was cold, but as soon as it warmed up just a bit, it was
      beautiful.
      It occasionally "burps" now (seems most often after driving 3 or 4 miles,
      and only one burp),
      Mechanic suggested waiting until the cpu learns the new performance of the
      engine.

      I can't estimate how much more power there is, but it's noticeably more
      powerful, especially at the high rpm's.
      It goes from 2500 to 5000 rpm almost immediately. Breathtaking.

      I'll keep you updated,

      Thanks again,

      -Louis
