Hey, it will help you reduce speeding tickets.....

Does it have any other symptoms?
It runs perfectly fine up until 4000, and idles fine?
Has it ran perfectly fine until now?

Try putting some octane booster in it, maybe you got shitty gas...

Matt I just got the car. I took it for a drive tonight it drove fine for 5 miles and then it acted up for 1 mile and then it stopped. Drove about 2 more miles and it started acting up for 3 miles and then stopped right before I got back home. Thanks Jason

It sounds like the distributor could be bad..
If you've replaced it, after market ones suck.. i've got em a couple of times and that is what i had for symptoms. I got one from the dealer, and it ran beautiful.
