Hi, I just purchased my 2001 Boxster base model with 67k miles. Car drove fine for about 2 weeks. Now when I'm in low rpms it feels like its kicking back on the power like it has a dirty fuel filter. Also, the idling needle goes up and down just a bit making the engine idle a bit rough. I've been putting premium fuel. No check engine lights are on. Should I try some fuel cleaners? Sea Foam? Clean MAF? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance
