Thanks for the suggestions. What is "good fire"?

I am pretty certain its a prob under the hood, cause the engine has a bumpy idle and it's the impression i get from the way the gas pedal feels. My shocks (changed about 4 months ago) have been through a move but i dont think they are it. Brakes/align/tires are fine. I have found that after the car warms up the idle runs smoother on the next start.

Little more- engine has a put-put-put sound to it at low speed acceleration, which it didnt use to have.

Problem seemed to have developed over time with slightly bumpier idle after starting in the morning, beginning prob about 2-3 weeks ago. Lower performance on high end than half a year ago, used to glide from 60 to 80 easily, even easier from 40-60.

Most recent tank of gas seemed to be going down about twice as fast as normal.
