chances are that your timing is not spot on. you may also need to check your throttle body for dirt buildup, it need cleaning. but try one thing at a time. if this does not work, you may need to elaborate more for us to get the picture of what might be happening. all the best.
Where to fine the radio code.
There is a manual that came with your car. Not the owner's manual, but a supplemental manual for the radio. The code is listed on a sticker there with the radio serial number. If you don't have that, there's a chance the dealer will have the radio code. Call and talk to the service dept at your local dealer. Give them the VIN and they might have it on file. For a 1998, chances are slim, though. Good luck.
