Cars acceleration has no power when floored, holds at 1500 rpm but when eased on it works perfectly but the gears stick sometimes until at least 5500rpm.

Also sometimes car dies and decides to have bo acceleration what so ever.

New throttle od sensors have been put in.

Please help its becoming unsafe to drive.
