Car Chokin in Acceleration

It starts hard sometimes, it cranks and then it like sputters then stalls, then it does it again. Then eventually it starts and then like idles at different Rpm's. It has never died but then at acceleration it like stutters or chokes. I think its either the Fuel Filter or the Fuel pump. BUt anyother sugggestions if you need any more facts i can give them too you.

my moms venture did that exact same this week and the check engine light even came on, i changed the fuel filter. problem solved.

did you know if you fix a problem that caused the check engine light to come on and just pump the brakes for like 5 minutes the light goes off, cuz i didnt till my dad was out hitting the brakes like a thousand times till the light turned off, lol

that had to have been a coincedence, even if it happened twice, tapping the brakes does absolutely nothing for the check engine light

my dad is a mechanic and yes it does work, have you ever fixed a problem in your car and then drove it and the light just turned off like a week later? thats cuz you have hit the brakes a certain amount of times and the computer has turned it off, so when you just hit the brakes for like 5 minutes strait it simulates you driving and stoping. if you didnt fix the problem that caused the Check engine light to come on the light obviously wont go away.

ok, i still dont believe it, it doesnt turn off a week later cuz i hit the brakes so many times, it turns off cuz it realizes the problem is fixed,

w/e i dont care if you believe me or not.

Ok, I feel the need to throw in my $.02

This must be some super duper mechanic secret that they never taught me.

If you hit the brake pedal a whole bunch of times, the only lights that will go out is your brake lights - from burning out. The brake pedal has absolutely nothing to do with the check engine light. Even if it somehow works, it's a pretty ignorant way of turning the light off.

Now, one thing that will turn off the light is to go through a certain number of ignition cycles (turn engine on, turn engine off). If you or your dad also did that, you might have turned the light out that way.

Another way to reset the light is to take the battery off. Did you maybe do that?

I only wanted to chime in because I didn't want other people to be misinformed - like some other poor sap pumping his brake pedal a thousand times in the driveway trying to turn off his check engine light.
