Default RE: Acceleration Holdback

i would start with the basics
cap rotor
hotter spark plugs
wires
fuel filter
if that doesnt work look into getting a new tps sensor

Could be the MAF sensor. Take it off and clean it out with electrical parts cleaner spray. Check for leaks in the intake. from the MAF sensor all the way to the TB housing. Sounds like intake hose has crack in the rubber.
