My car ran great cold, but after 5 mins of driving it felt like the computer went into a safety program and hard throttle would make it miss and pop being a new owner of and knowing what was done in the past was half ass I read all I could find about the rough idle and other problem. Figuring the 19 year old coil could use replacement and reading that the electronics attached to that bracket get hot and toss idle off I added a couple washers as someone suggested along with a new msd replacement coil and no more idle problems or computer going wacky after 5 mins. at least so far.
Your issues seem to be all over the place too much changed to compare it to my stock ride so do what I did read read and read then try something
Good luck...

Why are you so against fixing it or taking it to a shop? Any particular reason you are so quick to sell it?

Wish you luck on the sale but for sake of comparing I paid $3,000 for my 94 Convertible z28 only issues is speedo recalibrate, serious need of wax, a/c needs charging and maintenance neglected. A hundred $ later and a few buffing bonnets I have a decent driver to cruise in. I see a lot out there under 7k have my car for about 2 months now.
hope that helps you in pricing I love these cars in Black but not a black convert interior...
