Might want to check the coil as well. I had all sorts of weird problems when
my coil was on its way out. It took a bit of work to get it started so I
could get it out of Jon's barn at the BBQ. It took a while to throw a code
and when it finally did, it was immediately before it left me stranded.
Luckily I was on the way to the auto parts store so it wasn't a big deal. I
swapped it out in the parking lot.
