MY CAR IS SPUTTERING DURING NORMAL ACCELERATION BUT IF I BARELY TOUCH THE ACCELERATOR RPMS GO UP FINE BUT IF I HIT IT LIKE IM GONNA TAKE OFF FROM A LIGHT IT STARTS SPUTTERING SO BAD THAT I HAVE NO POWER AND DOESNT WANT TO GO. IVE GOT NEW CAP ROTOR WIRE PLUGS AND FUEL FILTER ALSO HAVE A SHORT RAM INTKE ON IT. ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE GREAT.

Check your timing. Make sure that it is correct at 6 - 8 BTDC. If you have the SE-R, then it is 13 - 17 BTDC.

Then check/clean you TPS sensor.
