Why not post a clear thread about what's wrong with it in the appropriate area so we can try to help out?

Maybe's he's just venting in here and not actually looking for constructive help.
The grammar and punctuation could be a direct result.

For some folks, an oil change is a tune up, so I'm not sure what he actually has done so far. I want to help, but I just keep catching snippets in the shoutbox.

Make up a thread, with some detailed listing of what's up and what's been done DW.

Check to see if you are getting a good 12v to the injectors and try to swap them out. I had a misfire on my elantra that turned out to be an injector not working properly.
