The cavalier sputters in cold weather at a constant speed. It does not do it n hot weather, only in cooler temps. Acceleration is fine but at a constant rate of speed it starts sputtering doesn't matter if its 25 miles per hour or 55 miles per hour.

Has the check engine light come on? Have you checked fuel pump pressure?

No the check engine light hasn't came on. We replaced the fuel pump about a year ago or less and it started doing this after wards. How do you check the pressure? And should there have been something that needed reset after we changed it? Thanks
