I have a 1992 Geo Prizm. Bought it for 400 bucks. No problems till now. Put new fuel filter, fuel pump, wires, plugs, and distributor cap. I can start the car and it will go ,then all the sudden i have to push the gas pedal all the way to the floor and it will barely go. If i have to go up a hill it wont pull and cuts off. I dont know what to do. Then when i come to a stop, it cuts off. Please help me!!!!!

Check the exhaust system for restriction and also test the throttle position and manifold absolute pressure sensors-

Yes as Raz said, certainly sounds like a clogged cat.

Also check when the timing belt was last changed, change every 60K.
