I recentley purchased the vehicle as is and when it takes off its slow, it eventually picks up speed and it jerks and puts sometimes when I hit the gas like its out of gas. It doesn't do this all the time but its worst when its raining.

Scanning for history codes will point you in the correct direction
as if its a misfire or something else
the ECM will hold in the memory all them trouble codes
so getting the codes will help
