Default HELP!!! car starts but won't idle

Ok so im on my way to work at 8am my car feels like the spark is maybe off a little or something. but i get to work. When I go to leave my car starts but when i try to push the gas in It feels as if once I get to about 2000-2500 its boggs out and i have to keep taping the gas pedal to make it stay "alive". Once I let go, it boggs out and dies. I usually have to give the car a little gas before I start it just to prime it pretty much, but now it seems as if, I give it any gas at all it boggs out and dies. If I dont touch the pedal at all and try to start it It starts right up, holds for a second then goes down to about 200 then pops back up to about 1100-1200 and goes up and down from there til it finally boggs out. This is confusing to me because I ahve a brand new battery, and changed all my plugs,wires and everything about 3-4 months ago. If anyone has any insight for me....PLEASE help.

Check you fuel filter...also check timing too..think fundamentals, fuel air spark compression...4 things to make an engine run check one by one

I have been driving my car for a while so I know its not timing...and it turns over and starts its just when i try to drive it and I engage the gas pedal it doesnt want to go anywhere....it just boggs out if I even touch the gas pedal
