Default car dosent run right...

Ok, when im driving my car and i put it into any gear and get the rpms up to about 3500 or higher and when i stomp on the gas the car will shut off or bog for about 3 secs and then out of no where it kicks back in and takes off. I have no idea what it could be. This all started after i took my accufab throttle body out and put back in my stock TB. I have a new stock MAF, new IAC. I dont kno what could be going on. If anyone has any idea of what is going, on the help would be most appreciated.

-John

Bad wires can arc under load causing all kinds of cross firing and hesitation. Can't hurt to change your ignition wires. I always had very good luck with Ford Racing wires.
