I suspect that for the money, time and frustration you spent so far would have paid for an inspection by a reputable mechanic and perhaps even the fix. Sorry, I have no idea on what more parts you could spend your money on. hmm , maybe a new set of fuel injectors. ---

I have had it analized by Action Automotive repair shop and Shanes Transmissions , thus far. Neither could pin-point the problem. ---

did the hookup a code reader? A life datastream can tell magic even without a trouble code. Edit: here is something you can do yourself to check the fuel injectors: ---

I have not been to a dealership yet but most of the help at the dealerss don’t seem to have what it takes. I had a toyota tocoma pickup that developed a leak at one rear axle. carried it to the shop & they installed a new seal, but about 12 months later I was back getting another repair. After the second repair it started the same leak again so I pulled it apart myself and found the problem that they overlooked , fixed the problem, installed a new seal and so far that has been 6 years ago , still no leaks. ---

So because **one** dealer had **one** less than perfect mechanic, that means that none of them do a good job? ---
