so coming from the store tonight and the car is running fine. im sitting at a light and the engine starts idling rough. i accelerate and the car is stuttering pretty bad. after about 20 seconds or so the car starts driving fine. when i get home the car is idling pretty rough. any ideas? plugs were changed less than 4 months ago.

 

Fuel filter? Had you just filled up with gas or were you low?

 

just got gas a few days ago and still on full

 

EGR can do this if the valve starts to fail.

 

I'll go with water in the gas before you do anything that cost money. Burn this tank out and change the filter and see what happens. Good luck

 

fuel filter cheapest fix. my friend has a gt, and his starts idling rough or wont even at all, i think he had a bad oxygen sensor up on the top side of the engine, or it may have been an egr valve. i cant remember exactly, but u may have bad gas. or caught a drug.

 

you can bring it over this weekend and I can look at it if you like.

 

Tell him to bring beer cause mechanics get thirsty

 

well i started the car up last night and took it around the block and all was fine. drove it this morning and was running as good as ever.

 

If it does it again, i'll bring it to the expert. By the way, I need to return your scratch remover compound stuff to ya.

 

that's where that went... I been looking for that. Need to sharpen a knife.

 

Haha, I'll drop it off.
