Need major help fast.

undefinedI have a 91 240 with the old KA. I am having major problmes. A couple of a days ago it wouldn't start, I waited about 3 hours and it started but was chocking like one of the cylinders was being chocked or one of my injectors was dieing. It got worst when I was going up hill. It would stutter really bad but still run and then I would get spurts of power when it ran normal. I figured maybe my fuel system is really really dirty or something. I changed the fuel filter about 4 months ago so I know it isn't that. It is really bad at low idle also. I got some of that injector cleaner stuff that you put in the tank and it started to run a little better. I don't know what to think. I am going to do a SR20 swap in the fall but I need my car for work and school right now. I need to get this fixed pronto because gas is way to expensive for this kind of crap to happen now. Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

sea foam thur the vacuum line... also clean the throttle body with that stuff...

do all the basic tune up...you spark plug wires may be super old
new air filter
oil change
o2 sensor
spark plugs

etc


also use 91 octane... its recommended from the factory manuel

could be a ground problem... make sure battery is tied down.

thats all i can think of...

spray and clean the maf with carb cleaner. I know that my car sometimes cuts out on power or has a rough idle.This helps out a lot if you have alreay done seafoam..
