I would start by replacing your EGR valve and replacing your Air Intake / Charge Temperature Sensor. Which is pictured below.

It has a manual choke thanks but this temp sensor air intake thing looks promising thanks both of you guys

I had no idea how complicated these little cars are sensors everywhere

no not yet but will try soon also I recently put premium gas in it that wouldn't make a difference?
