has any one else noticed that after the car has gone through it's warm up cycle that once you put it in gear and go on the gas, that the engine will engauge untill about 2000 rpms then cut off... fall to 1500 rpms kick in to 2000 cut off ... and so on... I'm forced to go through all my gears, shifting at 2000. 5th gear is at like 25 mph.... this doesn't happen all the time, just in the mornings when she feels like it. I'm wondering if it could just be a bad fuel filter. any advice, comments?

pull the codes out of it, somethings not right

tps, hook an ohm meter up to it and move the tps plunger in and out and make sure the ohms sweep smoothy up and down. When does the car stop doing it?

It seems most of the time it stops either with in a few minutes or I just limp it to where I'm going usually across the street.

somethings not right dude, obviously your car is not suposed to do that, i dont think its a tps issue, is it hot or cold? is there any repeating factors when this happens???

It has happened in the morning when I go to school.... and It has happend after driving for an hour on the highway and stopping off for a burger starting the car again and "try" to get back on the road.
