1999 Subaru Wrx,
my car tends to run rough and has a flat spot at low rpm's that is getting worse the more I drive. Also I replaced the leads, spark plugs and fuel injectors, I was also told it was my airflow meter my be the problem, which I replaced but did not fix the problem, do you have any ideas on what it could be?
