While driving a long real nice all of a sudden motor acts like it can't get its gas ( jerks, coughs, check engine light flashes) then it comes out of it. Than it happens again, then comes out of it this happens every day. I had the tpc replaced three times because thats what the code told them but that don, t help.

What was the code? Fault codes never say to replace parts. They indicate the circuit or system that needs further diagnosis, then you replace a sensor if that's what is found to be defective. About 50 percent of the time a code is caused by wiring problems or something else besides the sensor.
