Sounds like water in the gas to me. Run it empty and see.

I'm gonna go with something fuel related. Every time I've had a stuttering problem it's been water in the gas. If you're cruising at a constant speed and it starts stuttering and stops and starts again; 9 times out of 10 it's water.

i replaced my fuel pump but it was not that. I'm thinking it's my distributor? but car is driveable now but occasionally.
