    I'm afraid that description is just a bit too general to really track
    down a problem. Can you think of any other observations? Is it
    related to weather? How is the car's state of tune--does it have old
    plugs/cap/rotor, etc. Is all the wiring for the FI and ignition
    original--no one has modified it or wired in an alarm?

    When the car runs rough, what does the exhaust smell like compared to
    when it runs smooth?
