when I start my car, and start to drive, sometimes the engine sputters when I press on the accelleerator. i can see the RPMs jumping up and down, and the engine makes funny noises. i thought it was the fuel injectors, but i had all six replaced, it still sputters. i dont know why.

I have this problem too, but just this winter. It stops almost completely when the car warms up. Some have mentioned something about the coil going bad. No one ever stated how you would diagnose this particular problem. I have a Jacobs ICE pack so I would still be suceptable to a bad coil. Got me. I'm going to unplug the Jacobs, see if that helps, if not, then maybe wiring the Jacobs up directly to the coil wires instead of the output. We'll see, keep us informed.
