Default Need suggestions for total ignition cut out..

I had to replace my ignition switch last night, that went ok. My car starts now.

Now the new problem. I was driving to work this morning and the motor misfires bad. I would take off, shift, gas it. Then it is like the whole car shuts off, bucks, then picks up where it left off. Every gear.

I cleaned the engine last week. Its been running fine all week. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

I got the same problem. I just changed plugs, cap, wires, oil 4 days ago and it ran fine. The day after it started misfiring then, it would not start. The plugs were gapped correctly, got my ignition switch changed almost a year ago, put in new igniter yesterday; still will not start........ I'm thinking it's the coil now but, don't have tools to test it, don't have the money to go to a shop, can't afford to but another part if i get the coil.

New symptoms. I am cruising at 40mph. I throttle it and the car doesn't accelerate at all. I let go of the throttle then throttle it again just slower then it accelerates.
