1.) car drops in idle when stopping almost stalling sometimes, doesn't happen for a while and then happens again.
2.) car feels like its missing at light throttle cruising at any speed light throttle, car just feels like the wheels are unbalanced although they are.
3.) car bogs at WOT and sometimes while driving a get a strong fuel odor from under the hood....

My car did the almost stalling on hard brake and sharp cornering and i was running very lean.
Not sure about the fuel smell though.
