fuel filter=$30-$50 at nearest auto parts store. Replace yourself. Labor cost=$0. Money saved=$200. Thats my advice. And if its mis-firing it will be happening throughout the whole driving range, even at idle. You will be able to hear it. And it will backfire like hell. So, its prolly just the fuel filter. Thats my advice.
