sputters...stumped!

well its been a while since ive had any kind of trouble out of the car.

recently while drive ...the car acts like its missing or something....getting to much fuel and choking its self out
I dont really know how to explain it but the car is not running right it sputters and has a hard time making power and getting going when up to highway speed and i can also tell it when just cruising around but more so when i try to acellarate.

im stumped since its been awile that ive had to work on it.

I checked fuel pressure and its fine. I changed plugs and fuel filter and they were fine. when i did all the the car seemed to run like it should but the problem came back.


so what do i look for now?


I can datalog so if there is something i can look at there and post up let me know

thanks
