My car ran like that, I checked spark plugs, ended up being the wires...

Check those, I gained and lost "juice" too...

Just change plugs and wires. If it still does it then change distributor cap and rotor. Probably about about $50 for all parts listed

I've unplug the O2 sensor and the problem seemed fixed, So i've plug it back and the same problem happened. I don't have any CEL though. Could it be a faulty O2 sensor??
