Default My 97 DX is sputtering in the low rpms... help...

My 97 dx is sputtering in the low rpms. But once I hit about 1000 or so rpms it goes away. It feels as though I'm running on 3 cylinders till I hit a 1000 rpms or so. Could my timing be off? Any other guesses?

without going into a little more detail... you might wanna make sure you don't have some bad gas. (thinks to self: how do you check that anywas? Take a sip, if you taste water, it's bad? Idunno...) Go thorugh a tank of gas and make sure that's not it... Is it only while your giving it gas, or does it do anything funky at an idle as well?
