Ask yourself--How would 10 oz of anything,
diluted in 18 gallons of gas,do anything!!!!

When you have vehicle issues,you diagnose
to find the problem,come up with a solution
or fix,then repair.

That requires a lot of testing,not guessing.

If you suspect a fuel delivery issue,you put
a pressure gauge on it

Shaking-ignition to test
Sensors -to test.

Any Check Lights on?

Start by replacing the air filter and checking the operation of the fuel pressure regulator. Have the stored codes read out of your ECU, either by an auto parts store or a local mechanic, in order to ascertain a starting point for diagnosis.

I think your car has a 7th injector called a cold start injector. Takes the place of a choke. If it does check n make sure it's working properly. That's all I can think of at this time. Hope it helps. Also sounds like you still have a pretty bad vacuum leak. Listen for hiss at idle. Good luck

Car stalls out when declerating to a full stop

It sounds to me like you need to change the air filter. When the filter gets dirty enough, it starts having breathing problems at low speeds.
