Default any ideas...

on why my car sometimes doesnt seem to have the power when you get on it, i guess u could say it misses(not really sure how to tell when a car misses)? Not sure how to explain this but sometimes when you get on it in 1st through 3rd it seems to struggle. But it doesnt do it all the time, it does it especially after its been running for awhile. It has been doing this for awhile. Recent changes include new spark plugs and new radiator and just cleaned air filter today. New plug wires, rotor and cap are on the way. I know I need a fuel pressure regulator because my car does run rich, could that be doing it? I havent replaced the fuel filter yet but thats next on the list to help eliminate causes.
