I had a similar problem. My problem ended up being a bad COP. I'm not saying that's your problem because you have already changed your plugs.

I'm thinkincoil pack or COP tooboss. My 4v was doin the same thing. Take it to the shop and get them to plug it in. Even if its not throwing a code, they can tell you the spark goin to each cylinder, one might be lower than the others. If so, its most likely the COP
