The engine pulses. When you put it in drive and press on gas pedal it will cough and loose power. When you let off of the accelerator it runs fine again.

Is the check engine light on? First thing you need to do is pull all codes!

do this and count the flashes...Count the flashes, a 22 will flash as 2 flashes then a short pause, then 2 flashes, if more than one code is stored, the pause will be longer. The codes will display three times and end with 11 or 111. Write them down and post here. First do this with the ke on engine off, then again with it running.
