Whats my problem?
Ok.. I need to figure out this problem and fix it... Quick.
Ok when i start off and accelerate quickly.. or attempt to... the car will try and die... RPMS drop way down and it sounds like it dies but then picks up.
Attempting at a burnout the car died as soon as i tried spinning the tires... restart get them spinning again and can barely get over 1500 rpms and it dies again... put it in reverse and it dies all the time...
Right now the only way i can really drive is i have to manually shift the car and its an automatic... start off in first rev it high then slide up to second... any ideas or places i should check into?...
I've been told the TPS but i replaced it and it still does it.

Re: Whats my problem?
On the TPS - did you adjust it when you replaced it? If not see the Tech Articles.
any mods?, completely factory stock?, TPI/TBI, etc.

Re: Whats my problem?
Have you checked your timing, fuel delivery? Maybe something is in your lines preventing WOT fuel flow cutting you off.
