yes. I used the

button, all I came up with was CoasTek and his spark plug gallies filled with gas...

I did my NGK plugs and new C/R/W's a month or so ago when the problem first arrived. She settled out and stopped being such an

now, a month later, the problem resurrects. I checked the cap and rotor, the contacts seem wonderfully new and in great shape. After refueling I smell gas heavily for the next twenty minutes. Which, to me, is more than usual. At a stop, she stutters and drops idle to aboot 500rpm. She shakes like shes in heroin withdrawl, until I hit the gas. If I put her in Neutral (Automatic) the idle raises but the problem persist. Every once in a while, while shifting from P to D or to R (im lazy) she will stutter real bad, and stall. No problem starting her back up, but she still runs like hell. My MPG is ****, do you think I should check my plug gallies or replace O2 sensor(s)?

Sounds like a misfiring injector. Wiggle them and see if it clears up. Make sure all your wires are not coated with oil..and check the plugs on the injectors.

Look for vaccum leaks also. Is this a KAE or KADE?

KAE's can have a stuck vortex generator in the intake.

When I put the new (used) motor in, the third injector plug broke, she seems to be hold well though.

I was told, replacing those wires is a bitch. Not a simple slic-in type job.

Hopefully Ill be rid of this car soon...who knows
