The problem
I put it in drive and begin to accelerate everything is fine for just a few seconds and suddenly it feels as if I have let off the throttle and then back on and as my speed rises it is really rough and it seems to shift kinda low according to rpm's.
A little back story
The gas hand was just about on E so I pulled into the gas station and put about $20 in it and about a mile or so down the road I realize I'm having issues.
To be a little more informative, At idle if I mash the gas it revs up pretty rough, It's kinda like a studder. Also if i'm cruising around 50 mph and I try to pass someone it seems to have no power, It will downshift but the rpm's barely change.
BTW This is not a constant thing sometimes it will drive fine for 5 mins and then like crap and then fine, Also it seems to be worse when in overdrive.
Sorry this is so long, I just want to cover everything which reminds me. Full tuneup recently excluding fuel filter and plug wires just getting that out of the way.
Thanks for all advice and help!
