First I would try adding fuel injector cleaner to the gas tank since you said it worked for a day the first time may be still dirty injectors. If it does it after that you may have to replace some of your injectors. Also try replacing fuel filter.

There is more then one fuel injector? Thanks for the responds fellas I did put fuel injector cleaner in my tank then fill it up. Should I change fuel filter first? And is it cheap?

Yes I would and it is pretty reasonable to change filter depending on who you get to change it.

And yes there is more then one fuel injector. If you get the right mechanic to look at it he can determine which injector is causing the problem.

Clean your battery connections and make sure the clamps tighten up properly. You may have to replace the cable ends or modify them to clamp together farther. That works on my 07, my 98 grand caravan had similar issues but I found a wire on the dash cluster needed re soldered. It was the main power wire and is not supported.
