So heres the thing, about a week ago she stared to idle kind of funny, not really a rough idle but definately different than normal, the closest thing i can compare it too is sounding like a boxer engine.
Anyone else have this issue or tell me whats going on?
On a side note, oil was changed recently, she has new platnum plugs, new wires, its in the right firing order, new belts etc, i take good car of this car.
Someone help

Thanks guys, i was thinking that it was a fuel issue so bought a bottle of injector cleaner, i drove her 100 miles straight the other day and she ran fine and would still move like she used to.
as far as more descriptive goes when it drops below a grand is usually when i hear it most, so cap and rotor are on the list i guess, need it anyways, but i will upload a video when i get home, im over 600 miles away from the car right now

Yeah, I've tried Gumout fuel system cleaner more than once and she stills idles like that under 1k, but otherwise, she's completely fine!
