Its probably a fuel system thing. I am sure everyone else will say to check lines for clogs, replace filter, etc.

Might want to take a quick look at your ignition system too. Losing your lead ignition can sometimes cause symptoms similar to your description. Good luck!

accel pump. The extra squirt of gas that helps the car being able to handle more than subtle acceleration is not happenning. See if it's leaking when you accelerate.
