Default Trouble shooting expert

who is the best person to take your car to when having troubleshooting problems in the los angeles area? my car is backfiring, idling low to the point where it dies all the time, sputtering, throwing codes 3, 14. i replaced the map sensor, still no fix, the iacv still crappy idle now going to replace it again. it threw a 16 once and then it went away. 22 comes on whenever code 3 pops up. car can not drive in stop and go traffic without tripping. when in neutral the idle drops and car dies. seems impossible to get this car running right. i just want to take the car to someone who can check it out and pin point exactly whats wrong with the car.

You are going to throw a lot of money at these code, multiple codes is usually a sign of a bad computer, borrow one from a friend and swat them out to each others car, see if your codes come back and see if your friends car runs like yours.
