Rough idle, stuttering acceleration FIXED
I've decided I'm going to post all of my problems and solutions in threads, I've found that this is the easiest thing to search for, for others with similar problems.
Problem:
As it has gotten a bit colder, my 97' w/ 160k developed a lumpy, rough idle. Never stalled, but would shake and shutter at low speeds, such as sitting in traffic. Under light acceleration I experienced hesitation and erratic RPMs, and surges of power. No CEL, but two codes for misfire on cyl. 4 and random misfires.
Solution:
New upstream O2 sensor and spark plugs. (O2 sensor had never been replaced, spark plugs replaced last at ~125k)
Hope this helps someone, sometime.
