recently my 93 vette has been running very poor. The car starts up fine and runs fine UNTIL it reaches higher temps such as 170 - 190 degrees. Once it reaches around those temps it the idle becomes rough and the engine seems like it is stuggling. Also when it is given a little gas it pops and just sounds horrible. Before all this happened i noticed from a dead stop or at idle if you give it alot of gas the engine jerks and almost wants to shut down. My question is what is the most probable causes for this?
