My car sputters a bit under hard acceleration in the 4500 - 5000 rpm range in 4th and 5th gears. After it passes 5000 rpm's, (maybe 5200 or so) it pulls hard and smoothly.

Any idea what could be causing this?

 

Random ideas/thoughts: Low gas, cracked fuel hose, vaccum leak

Are you sure it is that high of a RPM, I believe thats after the extra ports open .So probably not that .

 

Yeah, I was on the highway for 3 hours last night, tried it out a few times. It is definitely that high of RPMs.

Also, the car had 3/4s of a tank of gas (premium, obviously) while I was testing this out. I will get the fuel hoses looked at, as well as vacuum lines later today. Any other ideas?

 

fuel cut?

 

I've got a Fuel Cut Controller.
