Angry can anyone help me........

i have seemed to run into an issue............to put into a nut shell, went to go out and stat up the "ferrari" (so to speak) and it initially started up fine; about two minutes later it all of a sudden started running like it was sort of missing.....i have already done a tune-up on it so i have kinda rules out plugs,wires etc. i remove exaust from manifold thinking it might have been the cat. but it wasn't......i'm kinda torn up as to what it might be....coils,emmisions,ecu??????manual dosen't list a troubleshooting section....and would you believe mazda doesn't have a clue and there is no one in town who wants to touch it....can anybody give me some insight or possible direction.......
thnx

my best guess is a vacuum leak. Although, knowing your car model would be kind of helpful in this situation. Give some more info on the problem and you will probably get more help. but for now, I'm gonna say vac leak.
