Its sort of hard to describe this problem so just imagine a long rope with knots randomly running down it and having your hand run down it thats how it feels when i floor it. It feels like it hits several knots while I am accelerating all the way up to 6k rpm

Possibly a slipping trans....? Or, perhaps, a miss......


any codes?
 






nope i'm not running any codes and none are stored
 






Check the intake tubing to the TB for cracks or other vacuum leaks. Could also be a bad MAF sensor, spark plug or coil.
 






that sound like the same problem i have. everything is fine under normal driving and mild acceleration. but when you give it 3/4 throttle to full throttle i get that jerky acceleration. i also thought it was a miss and changed spark plugs and wires fuel filter. still persists. no codes no abnormal sounds i can hear.
