Are you sure you gapped the plugs correctly?

Just cause they fit, doesn't mean they are gapped correctly take one of them out and check the gap. Does it buck under a low rpm load?

I have had good luck at .052", I was told to try it and have now seen a few books that list it at .052". Also check all your wires, one may not be on all the way causing it to jump a gap to reach the plug.

Make sure that the plug boots are pushed on to the plugs completely! Also do you have a CEL? Check Engine Light!

Have you checked your injectors? One could be clogged...

i do have a check engine light but it was for my O2 sensor and it goes on and off and the injectors have been cleaned, i put in fuel injector cleaner every 3,000 miles but i will double check my plug boots and if not just get new plugs...

I say that you go and get that code read, because IMO it is probably a misfire on one of the cylinders and then you can figure out which one to fix!

If you have stock coil packs I would gap the plugs to .052, you can get a spark plug gapper at any auto parts store.

I think you guys are making this more complicated then it is. He already said that he didn't gap the plugs, having incorectly gapped plugs can cause it to buck under low rpm/part throttle load, but not at WOT.
BTW using that fuel injection cleaner too often is bad for your car. Once every other oil change is more than sufficient.

Might be time for a new fuel filter. When was the last time you changed it?

never changed the fuel filter and i will go to the auto parts store and buy a gap tool, but i dont think its gas because it feels like a misfire its not cutting out.
