Have u change the coolant temp sensor yet if u replace it make sure u get a brass tipped one not a plastic tipped one those crack and inspected the connector if the connector is corroded then u will have to replace the connector too. The sensor is like 10 they cause the cars to do crazy stuff. Also inspect the spark plug wires for carbon where the spark plugs meet the plugs and inspect the spark plugs for black carbon and spark plug tips for being worn. Also inspect the coil towers for corrossion. If u change the spark plugs just use standard ngks no platnuims they carbon fowl in ur car. Let me know what u find.
