My car acts like it's skipping and at times it acts like it wants to backfire it will stale at times if the ac is turned on and when u stop at a redlight it jumps and when u start off it has trouble going but once you get going it does ok, it does all these tihings worse when the ac is turned on. I have had the plugs and wires changed and 1 coil replaced it did fine and it started again so I went back to the shop and they replaced both coils and it run fine now it's started all over again, I have tried lucas treatment. It is getting to be a problem can you tell me something I need to have checked.

Has the check engine light come on? Has the fuel pressure been checked? Has anyone checked the idle air control motor?

Let me know.
