Just about 30 min ago i got stuck in traffic on 83, there was an accident. I was in stop and go for about 10-15min. My car has been making a noise kinda like a compression ticking sound from the drivers side. But today it really started acting funny. The idle was dropping in and out in traffic, and when i went to move foreward each time... the car was shaking (violent) like it was running on 2 cylindrs. I kept revving it up to keep it smoothed out. When i got out of the jam, it seemed to come back once i got up to speed, but again when i hit a red light.

I am at work right now so i cant actually trouble shoot.

I did pull each wire of the plugs and it did not stumble on the drivers side rear plug. It did however stumble when i pulled the injector wire off the same cylnder
