My mom had a Dodge Caravan do something like what you discribing. My dad dropped the gas tank and it was full of gunk and needed to be cleaned out. They frequently went to AM PM and I guess the gas that they got there was crappy. You might want to have the mechanics check that out for you. It might be that simple, or not. Who knows it's worth a shot.

could also maybe be a vacuum leak? Does it have a real rough idle?

hmm... it did on my mom's car, but there was also some sensor on the throttle body that needed replaced, so thats probably what threw the code.... i can never remember what that sensor is called, its a ford taurus
