Possible Carbon BuildUp?

Possible Carbon BuildUp?
So I've had my 04 for a little over a year. Since the first day I pulled off the lot. Its had a problem not wanting to start up for a while after I shut it off, like when I'm at the gas station etc. I replaced the alternator and battery back in June. Its had a little rough idling since day one but nothing compared to what it is not. Its very loud and even shakes the glove box area. When I red line it it doesn't sound quite right. So I'm not sure if it's something as simple as spark plugs or if its coils that need replaced or carbon built up.

I just hit 85k I bought it with 67k. I went to a rotary shop here and he listened took a look at it and he told me he thinks it's just the plugs. But didn't completely rule out the other things until he has time to look at if for a day. He seemed confident it wasn't carbon. But said he'd do a compression test.

Replace or rebuild the engine is the only true fix for failing compression. Cost can be from $2500-$6000 depending on who you have build it,how meany parts are reusable,and if you take the engine out and put the new one in.
