I have a question to ask? I have a 2000 Chevy Cavalier with around 105,000 miles give or take. They problem started happening about 2 months ago. When I noticed the idoling problem, i had my husband change the air filter, spark plugs, plug wires, and clean the intake. Well that made it worse. The problem is when the car is idoling it seems like its misfiring. When i'm accelerating you can't notice it. And another thing is that when I turn the AC on it tends to help it. Can you please help me. I don' t want to spend a fortune on the car to fix it. Thanks

For a start clean out the idle air control valve and see what happens.
