I had a similar issue twice. Once it was the coil and the other it was simply the spark plugs. I would start there and work your way up.

ok i will check and try to replace those today...thanks but iam thinkg its a fuel problem? the engine revs fine in park and sounds strong but when i put into park and hit the gas it goes for a second then sputters? but like i said if i drive slow just barley give it gas it barley stutters but then i push the pedel doon to go and it spotters up to speed?

and i noticed the gas pressure gage is high when it sputters?

Sounds like electrical problem. Or maybe the Fuel Distributor Pressure Regulator EHA Valve, which I had happen on my old 87.

i figured it out it was one spark plug clogged with old dried up oil.it couldnt get enough spark.so this turned out to be a good deal the guy sold it cheap thinking it was broke and it was a 3 dollor fix.eventhough i spen 50 on a new ovp that helped the abs light.thank mb forum and for the help


problem fixed cause spark plug
