My camaro has a rough idle and accelerates with a great amount of hesitation. I have checked spark plugs, replaced fuel filter, and ran injector cleaner through the fuel system, but I cannot find the cause of the embarrassing accelerations. Any suggestions will be apprieciated.

Inspect and test all the following listed below and get back with some results

Oxygen sensor.
Catalytic converter.

False air leakage.
Fuel contamination.
Foul/defective spark plugs.
Open spark plug wires.
Ignition coil/Coil packs defective.
