Car's fixed!

Took the car to Pep Boys yesterday (luckily it started and made the entire drive with no problems). They did a full diagnostics on it and decided to try replacing the spark plugs. That apparently did the trick! Got a few other issues fixed that needed to be done (brake lights replaced, tires rotated, general tune up stuff). And the bill was just under $300 to boot. We were so glad that this wasn't a $1000+ car bill. Maybe we can get some more life yet out of that 300M!
