Ok. I had this problem last year, before I junked it. I kept turning the injectors and cleaned the components of the throttle body. Check the O-rings on the injectors. You have to clean everything on the throttle body. My IAC valve was gummed up from cheap gas. After you clean it, on a 1/4 of a tank dump chevron techron in. Run it for 10 minutes and try the next grade gas. That was how I fixed mine. Took me a month every spring trying to figure it out until last year.
