if the engine timing is run by chain, it probably needs replacing, having the same problem with my 93 nissan altima. timing chain stretches out and will slack until you accelerate at which point it will grab, that's most likely your problem. ask a mechanic for sure, cuz I'm no expert, but I think that's it.
