For this problem to come and go does not make sense. You have to see what ius happening when it is acting up. Maybe you are loosing spark to a few cylinders. Maybe the ignition coil is weak and does not have a strong spark at times. You would see the color of the spark different between when running good and running bad.

Maybe you got some bad gas in the tank. Take a fuel sample into a glass jar, let it sit a few minutes and see if it seperates or there is debre in it.

If the connectors are different, sounds like it is the wrong one.
