When I accelerate the car seems to be cutting out. I press the gas and the car will do like a sputter like the gas my be cutting in and out. But if I press the gas really slow it doesn't do it. It normally does it when It's been running for a while.

New TPS, Fuel filter, spark plugs and wire are only 5 months old. (I bought the good wires and plugs)

Also, Since I have bought the car 8 months ago, I've notice that I have kinda a poor idle. Its really low idle and sound a little rough. And only once I has died for the low idle.

Thanks,
John
