So i searched and found that my situation is unique.. after like 5 pages of sputtering posts. This is going to sound stupid but this is what my car is doing. If a normal run through 3rd gear sounds like this on a non sputtering motor

bwahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh


mine sounds like

bwahh bidabahhhh bidabwahhhh bwah bwah bwah

I just changed my sparks, fuel filter, and i had 2 injector that were leaking thrugh the o-rings a little that i replaced. I also swapped dizzys with another car and it dihelped but not fully.

It starts up and idles fine, and doesnt do it in first but under any throttle in 2nd-5th. It is the most annoyin thing in the world and is frustrating and embarrasing to drive.

Same issue in my car when i did my swap, it would idle fine, but it was screwed under load.... It ended up being the Wire-harness ground. Check your grounds. then reset your ecu and go again.

 

the ground!? hmm that would save a lot of wasted money

 

Turns out it was the ground wire!... cleaned em up and it still sputters but a very little bit...im going today to pick up some ring terminals to redo all the grounds with new 4 and 8 guage wire.

Hopefully itll turn out

 

let us know how it goes

 

spoon header + new 4 guage ground wires all around = no sputter/breaking up. Its amazing to have a stong sounding car again
