My 92 continental runs but sputters, it cant pull hills but on a straight stretch it does fine. I have replaced the fuel pump the igniton switch and the egr as well as did a full tune up. Anyone have any ideas anything would be helpful. Thank you for your time

Check for vacuum leaks. Verify ignition timing. Did you replace the filter along with the fuel pump? Check catalytic converter back-pressure.

I did replace the filter along with the pump. I have not had a chance to check the timing but I did check for vacumm leaks and there is none.

When checking the timing, make sure you check the advance, also.
