Hi y'all, first post and hoping someone out there has a good guess for my problem.
So I have a 2000 civic ex w/d16y8 stock engine. As title states my car is sputtering at low rpm but drives fine after 1500-2000 rpm's. Car temp don't seem to make a difference.
Upon it's first occurance My intuition said it was the fuel filter. I changed it out as well as took a look at my rotor n plug set up and all was good there, checked air filter it was clean, no CEL on. Anyways I also threw in some gumout fuel injector cleaner and began driving. The problem was gone! I was excited to solve the issue on first try! Or so I thought. It mysteriously returned again today. Now I read it could be water in tank, n to try stp water cleaner or something like that, a possible alternator going out or injector fuel problem. I know it can be a lot too like a fuel pump going out or sensor. But I figure this is a common problem with too many solutions and therefore the common fix y'all have done to remedy this issue is likely to be mine as well. Much thanks to y'all and have great days
Peace
