Did this start all of a sudden? Did someone work on the car prior to this?

Usually, if no one has messed with the car prior, it will be 2 things:

1. A fuel restriction

Have you checked if fuel is reaching the injectors? If not, then unplug the fuel line after the fuel filter, and crank the car. You should see the fuel stream out. If not, could be a plugged up fuel filter of something in the line. You may wish, if you have the tools, to check fuel pressure.

2. An exhaust restriction.

Best way to deal with this is to hook up a vaccum guage and see if there is'nt any pressur ebuilding up due to a crushed exhaust pipe (it can happen) or a plugged up cat converter

I have change the fuel filiter...How ever I have not check for fuel pressure...I guess that would be good start.. I have had catalaty converter replace while back so that should be good. Is there a way to check fuel injector when the car is running? I was also told to check the ingition module? How do I do that?
