> for starters I would disconnect the air filter and run the car straight off of the MAF. I ran into a down right nasty clogged air filter when I first got my 1gen and it had all of the same problems. After that I would check the plugs, coil, and wires.

Sorry forgot that she did the air filter before we moved down here, new plugs and wires but I don’t know about the coil. I never heard that about the cat, but that’s easy to check.

I was actually going to check the ground to make sure it is good, i’ll have to do that and check the coil, tommorow, and i’ll just take the thing when I go shopping tonight and check the cat when I get home.

Thanks for all the help so far.
