Car is not showing any check engine light on. Car studders when you put it in gear. I got pictures of live data.

It sounds like the engine needs a tune up. Also, I would read the codes anyway even if the check engine light is on. When was the last time new spark plugs, plug wires and cap with rotor? Here are two guides to help, the live data looks good to me, but to be clear the engine was cold and then you let it warm up, correct?

Yes I let the car warm up. Before I tried to drive. As soon as the gas it starts puttering out. I hit the gas pedal no acceleration. Pedal to the floor. When I put it park it sounds fine.

It sounds like the fuel pump is going out, were you able to run the codes?
