Stop throwing parts at it. Do maintenance. Did you change fuel filter? Buy a code reader and check for codes. Don't bother going to AZ to get the codes read. ......... Even if the CEL is not on. Read it for codes. You want to try to catch a pending code. Codes are your friend. Make sure the cel comes on koeo
