It would only do it after the car warms up and not do it all the time. Once and awhile i could give it any amount of throtle to accelerate, few mins later if the spped goes down below 60 if i give it a little gas it jerks and bocks then when i nail it 1 sec later boom full power and it takes off. The cruises at speed the very best but when it comes to giving throttle under 60 notin there.

I am guessing it the throttle position sensor, anyone else have this trouble before?? Or know what might be causing it.

I had a similar problem. Cept I changed the tps and still had the damn problem would try flooding itself with gas, mine was an 87. hence why I now have the Focus, that topaz was a damn money pit. Sold it to my brother for 100$ and he drove it into a light standard poles with 36hrs of owning the car.
