Rant on!

Why is it one day the car spits, sputters and seems like it is going to die and the next runs like a rabbit on crack?

It was 19 degrees on Sunday and my car acted like it was going to die and when I would give it the gas it seemed it would just run out of spark? It was almost like a spark plug wire or an ignition problem. I took ONE spark plug wire off that looked like there was a problem, no that wasn't it. I also broke the little plastic piece on top of the alternator about a year ago took it off and re-taped back down because it was a little loose.

I get in it to today to take it to a friend that manages a Tire Plus store so I could use his garage and it has never ran better. I just don't get it some days I want to drive it off a cliff and others I would not trade it for a Corvette. I still have no idea what it was or is making my car act up. Sorry for the long read.

Rant off.
