Who's "they?"

They couldn't pinpoint it to one precise problem?

Get it diagnosed asap, If it's a plug or COP it can toast your cat converter petty quick. Hope you get it taken care of with out washing out your wallet!

Hell might as well take a picture of the engine stick it on a dart board and start throwing darts and replace them as you hit them on the board. Dont take it to "they" take it to a shop you can trust.
