Update

Well yea, I have an update to my rough idle/poor performance problem.

Symptoms

1. Rough Idle, RPM under 1000, bumps up and down slightly
2. Bad acceleration at full throttle
3. Misfires
4. After Start, 13 MPG!!!!
5. Stalls when I let go off the pedal after rapid acceleration

I smell a MAF problem... after figuring it out it wasn't my engine mounts. And autozone doesn't do the free OBDII checks. Blah... anyways, seems pretty straightforward... A new MAF or maybe something else?

Throw in a new MAF sensor, replace the air filters, clean out the interior of the air box, and be done with it.

LOL, air filters were replaced when I bought the car by the cheap dealership. Sounds like a problem solved... hopefully.
