Try the TPS (Throttle Position Sensor). That will cause all kinds of headaches.

it turns out that my injectors were extremely clogged, and that(according to the dealer) i was running on only 3 cylinders, they took them out and used a high pressure reverse flow process to clean out all of the build up... theyre good as new and its running better than it ever has. thanks for the help.

Hey pimpin,
How much did that cost you and how long. It has to be cheaper than buying new injectors. Thanks I may need that done myself. Thanks

I had the same issue last year. Found out it was a cracked gas cap. Replace the cap and have not an issue since.
