My engine runs rough and has a loss of power.
Some people say its a fuel module?
Some people say its ignition coil ?
some say its computer problem
Where in the world do I begin without spending a ton of money trying to eliminate every possibility?

1. Defective spark plug
2. Inadequate spark/coil, defective spark plug wire.
3. Lack of compression
4. False air leakage.
5. Faulty fuel injectors.
6. Insufficient fuel pressure.
