my 1998 Mazda Protege LX car with 125,000 miles hesitates when in Reverse or Drive. Idleing in neutral or park no hesitation. Also runs rough until speeds over 25 mph is attained. I'm thinking a fuel problem but I need assistance from someone with more knowledge before I start spending unneccary money.

The code means system is running lean/rich and the first thing you need to check would be for vacuum leakages between the throttle body and air cleaner.
