Default g35 sedan need some help

hey iv done some research and iv see similar problems but not exactly like mine.

at start up with the motor warm or cold i get a rough idle for a few seconds and then it gos away plus the car kinda miss fires some time not all the time this problem happened from one second to the other. im pumping 93 oct, i put the heet bottle thinking it was water in the tank, i put the lucas injector cleaner. i don't know what else to do i have no warranty so no dealer suggestions. plus while driving normal no problem . while in hard driving the motor stalls out like if the car had no power or as if my tranny was slipping and also get some back fire. i just changed the spark plugs bout 2 to 3 weeks ago put in some ngk v power...

please help

Try cleaning the MAF, then the TB, then do a TB reset.

I don't see how the spacer could help your problem. Doesn't sound like an air leak. Do a poor mans air leak test and spray some soapy water around seals if ya think thats where the problem comes from.

If the cel light was on then went out when it is supposed to be on due the cat being gutted maybe the ECU is bad.

i haven't tested all the vacuums but i think that its more of an electrical problem, because in the mornings and/or when its sitting for more than an hour it misfires or something.I'm not sure if its misfiring or what it is but it sounds like a subaru...i ran some sunoco 110 leaded fuel.that they had told me it was good to clean the injectors n stuff but it didn't do n e thing but give me that beautiful smell... lol .. i think I'm just gonna go ahead and go stock plugs again.i just didn't want to have wasted that money for nothing on the first ones n then waist them all over again for nothing on the stock ones. what u guys think i should do??
