These forums have been great! I have gone through the not starting(stator) and the popping frontend(tighten the cross brace) easliy with past forums. The problem I currently have is the car randomly missing out. It seems most noticable at lower rpms going down the highway and underload. The strange thing to me is how random it is. I won't feel it one minute, then the next I will. I don't notice it at higher rpm. I thought maybe O2 sensors, but tried going down the highway and still did at WOT at lower rpm in 5th gear. I also really notice it when first pulling out before it gets up to temperature. It idles just fine. I just bought the car and it has stock MAF/filter/housing. It does have a Performer intake and 70MM throttle body. Stock engine other than that. I have replaced plugs, cap, stator, computer(it was coding self test failure and to replace) and spraying the MAF and intake temp sensor with electrical cleaner(didn't help). Got any ideas? Thanks guys!

Things i can think of off the top of my head would be:

weak coil.
plug wires
fuel pump
clogged fuel filter
maybe somethign with the timing/distributor.

I had a similar problem w/my maf, clean maf, check voltage to it if you can, and see if there are any codes. (when I had a maf issue, no code pulled up). Also check all the things listed previously.
