Been changing spark plugs as it floods alot, if car not properly started.
Car sounds like a beetle when it idles. No power in exelaration.

Make sure you're getting good spark to each plug. Make sure the injectors are clean. Check the fuel pressure and the pressure regulator. Also scan it for soft and hard codes.
