hey, lately my car has been stuttering under spirited driving.
like if i floor it in second it almost feels like i hit feul cut or something.

i don't believe that it is the 3k hestation because, its not at 3grand.

it changes spots in the rpm range.

anybody have any idea what is going on?

i'm thinking fouled spark plugs...

Sounds like ignition problem to me, could be bad plugs or coil-s...

When's the last time you've replaced:
Fuel filter, plugs, plug wires?

If you haven't serviced the car lately, I'd start there.

intermmitent ignition/spark or restricted flow of fuel delivery will likely be the source of your problem.
