i left work today car was running normal, got on the highway passed a truck and then set cruise.(i stepped it to the floor when passing) after setting cruise the car was jerky and sluggish. it barley wants to move unless i step on it then it goes like normal. sounds like its not running on all cylinders at idle or low rpm also using fuel like its going out of style. please help need to go to work tomorrow. newer plugs wires coils and air filter 98 ssei. basicly it runs normal if i put it to the floor otherwies its crap.

check your coil packs, and check that there are no vacum leaks gas filter. That where Id start. Good luck

Check your coolant level and keep a sharp eye on it. Pull a couple front plugs (all 3 would be best) and smell them.
