You need to find a new shop. Y

You need to find a new shop. You need to have some gauges for your fuel pressure and air pressure and compression test
start with a compression test
Spark test would be the next test
Then you'll need to do a scan of the ecm for any faults ddt will let you find any other parts the could be bad
Oh lastly don't fall out over the cost of the ddt
You need to find a good shop that can scan your motor.
