Well here is my new adventure in the DSM troubleshoting world.
:cry: :cry: :cry:

I was driving home a the runnig perfectly smoth as silk then when
i stoped at a red ligth all of a suden it started e VERY ROUGH IDLE it didint die but after thids the engine has no power at all.
I can hardly accelerate I was close to my home anyway so kept on going.
Things I already check:
1.Spark pllug wires were ok.
2.Spark pulgs all 4 were ok(I use ngk br7es)
3.The car doesnt smoke one bit, nothing at all. (Lucky me)
4.Air filter is not clogged.

The BOOST gauge bounces from 6 IN HG close to 0 PSI it used to read a steady 17IN HG all the time.This reading of couse is at IDLE.
:confused: :confused:

Iwas thinking that the cause of this could be clogged FUEL FILTER since ive owned my car I havent changed.
Could a weak fuel preasure cause me this problem.
Or could it be something else.PLEASE could someone help me out on this.
Thanks in advance.:thumb: :thumb:
 
OK I will try that.
By the way I replaced the fuel filter and that didi not fixed it.
Also I swaped the ignition coils and that did not help one bit.
Tomorrow I will try the MAF swap then.
If this doesnt help waht else could I look in too.
:confused:
