Default 98 camaro 3.8 v6 stutter problems

ok let me tell you about the car first its a 98 camaro 3.8 v6 with 16x,xxx miles.

ok well the problem is when the car iswarm or cold it stutters at about 1800-2000rpms, well i thought it might bea coil so i relpaced it twicebut it came right back after a few days, so then i replaced the part that the coils sit on hopeing that it might fix my problemand it did for a short time but some days it runs like its brand new and the other days it runs like crap. so my question is what the heck is the problem and how do i fix it. could it be the timing belt or some other eletrical problem.

Any help would be very apreciated.

Thanks Tony.

Plugs, wires? Does it matter how far the gas pedal is pushed when it studders?

new plugs they didnt fix the problem, new coils didnt fix the problem,it stutters in the low rpms but runs good in the higher rpms. i sent you a email but not sure if it sent.

may or may not have anything to do with your problem, but I had a similar one on my toyota tacoma (automatic) when the O2 sensor died.
