But be careful because if you are running lean you can burn a piston and if you are running rich you can get a significant amount of carbon build up or burn up the catalytic converters.

You can get the codes checked at autozone for free. IT wont tell you exactly what wrong, but I will get you where to start looking. Let me know what codes you get.
John, you are just the automotive GURU. I officially dub thee, the SaltyCajun auto tech advisor.
