Default My car is sputtering

Hey guys, im new to this forum. Just couple weeks ago my car was driving fine. Then one morning i started up my car and it starting to sputter like a wrx. So i went got me new Spark Plug(s),Wire(s),Distributor Cap & Rotor and my car still sputters. I'd adjusted my valves and thought it would work but it didnt make any difference. Can anyone help me find out this problem??

check your fuel injectors... then do a compression test...

Injectors will only sputter under acceleration.If its sputtering at idle and acceleration its your ignition coil.Happened to me twice,My car sounded like a STI or a damn Wrx during idle and acceleration.

.........UGH!! ..... WRONG!!!! please do some research before you post!! injectors can certainly misfire @ idle..if its open circuit , it would receive a signal from the ecu and not pulse....
