well I am going to use a friends OEM plug wires and plugs that work in his and test it. If the wires are bad I am either going to buy magnacore wires or COPs. Shouldn't the BPR7ES be fine?

*UPDATE* Ok so I tried new wires and plugs, it didn't make any difference. So I did another test, I unplugged the newly installed Coolant Temp. Sensor and I just let the wire hand there. And I started the car up and there was NO check engine light and the car ran exactly the same. So since it made no difference when it was plugged in or unplugged do you think that it could possible be that causing the problem? I was thinking that maybe the car's choke is controlled by that sensor. If so and the sensor is bad it could be the cause!? What do you guys think??? I mean it kind of makes sence, I changed that sensor and BOOM this problem comes up right?

Well I just bought the OEM one and I will replace the crappy Napa one and see if it works (fingers crossed) If not then it is going to the mechanic :-(
