2002 Accent 1.6L DOHC Auto, sluggish and misfiring . . . ? HELP!!
 
k so its my first car so deal with it haha. got it for 500 buck beaten it up and have about just under a 1000 in parts into it. bought it @ 206,xxx kms and its off a friend of a friend. dont have all the service records but if needed i coulb probably get them.

anyways heres the problem, im now @ 222,000kms so ive put 16,000 on it myself. its very slow of the start(slower then it was), when @ speeds between 70-110 kms if you easy gently onto the gas it jolts randomly from time to time like its misfiring. ive replaced the plugs about 14,000kms ago, the wires are new before i got the car and working correctly, and the 2 coils both work as they should. i just clean 80% of the **** out of he throttle body and such and im now ive ran about half a tank of lucas injector cleaner through it. and no improvement. oh and theres no misfire codes.

im 19, and as stated this is my first car. im consider myself pretty mechanically inclined, but im no professional. but i do what i can and i enjoy learning this stuff. i just want my car to run properly again, and see how far it will actually keep kicking. im considering replacing the fuel filter but if thats not the cause there goes more money. so all input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, mike
