Thanks for your replies. I told him he might need a new ignition coil, but we're not going to replace anything until I can scan his computer. I just bought an advanced one that checks ALL engine data while you drive it and will find an intermittant problem. We're going to see if it finds something before we replace anything.
I checked his timing belt the other day to make sure it was good and it MUST have been replaced before now for some reason...it's not cracked and shows little signs of wear, it's also pretty tight.
Is there anyone here that has had problems with the Autolite Platinum singles? He put those in right after he put Bosch fours. The Bosch's made the engine run like crap.
