    Mods? Type of plugs? Plug Gap? Last time fuel filter/wires/plugs were changed? Do you know if the car is running lean?

    its pretty much bone stock....i have cleaned the throttle body out and i just changed the plug wires yesterday and the spark plug are the plugs that i got with the car which i took them out and they looked alright...and how do you tell if the car is running lean? im still learning everything.

    kinda sounds like fuel filter or regulator, you need a scope to see what the mixture is
