Alright, I got the car for 800 bucks. The guy said the tps was bad when I got the car. I got the car at night and didn't really give it a good look over but what I seen was that the throttle body was missing 2 bolts on the bottom and the tps bottom screw was missing. I drove the car home with it barely moving which was fun. Now after I replaced the TPS, IAC, spark plugs (NGK copper) and new oil and oil filter. New intector o-rings, fuel filter and new air filter for my air intake. The car runs better now and gets me to a to b. The fuel reader does not work but I keep 20 bucks in it every week and only drive about 60 to 100 miles a week. I don't know if the previous owner ran it out of gas or not alot but recently after driving it for 5 to 10 minutes it goes into a limp mode. First it will buck back and fourth if I give it more than a quater throttle. Then after about 30 minutes of driving it will start having a horrible horrible miss and stutter and shutter. A buddy of mine says it sounds like a subaru. Before I replace any more parts on the car I want to know what I should replace next that would be biased on your guys opinions. So any help at all?
