When in park or neutral there is no load on the engine. Why did you not change the plugs? Still believe it to be a component that is having probs under load condition. Idle Air Control? Dirty throttle body? Vacuum leak? How was the cat cleaned? Did not know could be done.

Well the plugs seem to be fine and the idle air control? Do you mean the sensor ,should try to clean it or does it have to be replaced and can I clean both idle ccontrol and throTtle body be cleaned with carb cleaner? But my mechanic cleaned the cat I didnt get to see him do it all I know it that he took her down nd I think split it open nd used air pressure or something im not sure and thank you for responding
