2000 Neon Hit the gas and car goes put-put

[Jadavisit]

Anyone had this problem you cant hear it put-put but you feel it, I would describe it as when you floor it or just start to back up when the car has been sitting for a while it just jerks sorta like it isnt getting gas or the engine is trying to cut off but it just puts around like I have a solar panel car and its really cloudy that day. Anyone know what I mean?
Someone told me to check the Airfilter which sounds like a smart idea. Anyone know where that is on a 2k Neon?

Thank for any help.

Your description doesn't leave us much to go on.

Not to sound like a jerk but if you don't know where the air filter is you may just want to take it to a shop. How many miles are on your car?

Under the hood, right below the battery. Not underneath the battery, just below it.

Your air filter is on th drivers side, quite large, just befor your grill. You will need a phillip screwdriver to loosen the bolts, and then there are a couple of metal snap ons.
If you get it out , put the filter up to the sun and see if its totaly dirty.
Theres a chance it may be your fuel filter also, or your might be lacking fuel pressure.
Wish you luck.
