i'm assuming the cap & rotor... cause he's already changed the wires, spark plugs, & fuel filter...

could be a loose screw on the inside of the distributor cap. could be the rotor just pongin around when u try to gas it :\ just a thought though

its probably the dizzy yo. i have the same problem on mine. just been too lazy to replace it. try letting go of the gas pedal and then step on it when it happens.

sounds like a intake manifold is leaking some where or timing is off.
