hey i have a 96 ford escort, and when i get on the gas pedal, the acceleration cuts out as if it were in neutral, but without the rev, if i let off the gas and come back on slowly it accelerates again, this happens at weird intervals, but mainly when accelerating... any ideas?

Check exhaust back pressure
check fuel pressure and fuel pump
is it due for tune up
I would check that too \
