My car's stutter has gotten much worse. So, I took my car to a local shop yesterday and had my car scanned (cost me $56). It came back and said I had a clogged injector and my ignition system was bad. So, I had them do this "fuel system flush" (another $45) and that helped a little. Then I went and bought new spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributer cap, and rotor (all together: $74). Installed it all and my car still has that same damn stutter it has always had. This is really pissing me off cause I have spent SOO much money on this problem, and I am still at the same point as where I started. The only thing I haven't changed is my O2 sensor. I took it out and looked at it, and it didn't look bad (i guess, it wasn't all brown and worn). Only thing I can think of is either my MAFS is shot or something mechanically is really messed up. Anybody?
