engine is cutting out in heavy traffic when i'm feathering the gas pedal. like a bucking when you jack rabbit a standard. accelerating slowly 1st and 2nd gear with a steady press of the gas pedal causes it to cut out or buck, but when I'm heavy on the gas it accelerates smoothly. I have recently replaced fuel pump, tps, plugs and maf sensor. coil packs were done 30000 miles ago. corrected some problems but this one is driving me nuts. thank you
