thanks i will get that done ...what about an injector cleaner that you put inthe gas ?? the rough idle sounds like a back fire /intermitent miss when listening to the exhaust pipe

well i toke it in had them cleaned and have used about a tank of gas now on one long trip
the idle is fine when the engine is cold but when it getts hot the idle gets worse 
also when you drive along then stop with the engine idling it seems to idle fine for about 10 seconds then gets rougher the longer you leave it idling 
the car drives fine uses no oil or water is more econimical now but i have noticed a slight flat spot when on medium throttle and accelerating HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Perhaps an ECU reset is in order.
