      Plugs, rotor, cap, ignition wires, AFM, timing reference sensors, or even the DME can be a cause. A refresh of the ignition system, elimination of intake leaks, and verification of the fuel system should be the initial course of action. And if it have 100k or more on it, replace the O2 sensor.

              The DME is the engine management computer.

              The life of the O2 sensor is typically not more than 100k. If that applies to this sensor you should replace it.

                      You can subscribe to the thread. Or just remember the forum you posted it in. I am Orlando if you have questions. It looks clean.

                                                      Just get a Magnaflow muffler if you want a different sound
