**ANGER..stupid car**
Take a look at the contacts on your MAF Sensor (The Bigger one!), You'll need to take a screwdriver and slide the metal clamp (bent paperclip thing) off, check 2 see if theres any dirt.
You may have got some crap fuel, It was running fine b4 you filled up yes :?: Changing your fuel filter might fix it, but if you have water/crap in the tank you will have to clear it out or your filter will just block again.

If you do suspect that it is water, they do make a solution that you put in the tank that will absorb the water. I am not sure what it is called but you can find it at most car parts stores.

Metholated spirit will absorb the water and then be burnt off.

Really, get the gas level LOW and use a FULL Can of B12 Chemtool. That stuff is the GREATEST. It's cleaned problems others have left.

dude, if you keep driving it, it'll only get worse. it might just be a spark plug. happens to any car...
just go to your mechanic and it'll be fixed once and for all. no car is really faithful. you just have to take car of it, change the oil, engine flushes...etc. get your car checked up every half/year to a year depending on how much you drive it.
over the years, fluids, hoses, sparkplugs warp out or degrade because of weathering or "wear and tear". make sure it's a mechanic you trust tongue.gif

You want to get the tank as empty as possible, then pour the FULL Can of B12 Chemtool in, THEN fill it up with gas, correct? Like pour the B12 Chemtool in while you're at the pumps but before you fill up? So that the gas mixes with it?
Shouldn't be a plug issues. Check your filter on the CAI and make sure it's clean. If it's excessively dirty, clean it or get a new one.
