Spuder issue

2008 Honda Civic 1.8L

I have an 08 Civic, I recently was driving in rain and hydroplaned and went over a curb and put a small hole in the radiator toward the kids. now my car has a hard time starting and then when it starts, it idles good for a few minutes, starts to spuder then idles back normal for a few seconds then spuders again then eventually it shuts down. I’ve replaced fuel filter and fuel pump. Still having same problem. No check engine is light on so no codes pop up. I still took to autozone to have it ran just to be sure. No codes. Any idea on what else could be causing this issue?

Re: Spuder issue

Does the radiator still have a hole in it? Did it leak coolant?

Re: Spuder issue

Yes it’s a small leak,it’s up towards the cap of the radiator. Wanted to fix the sputter before replacing the radiator

Overheating or loss of coolant, heater blowing cold
