ENGINE GURU's- HELp

Hi,
ok here is the problem, my 2000 acuta tl3.2..does not pick up as it always has, foer some reason when i press the gas just a little, it picks up normal, but as soon as i give it a lil more gas, the engine starts to shake a little, and keep doing that till i press the gas all the way down..it does not sound good at all..

does anyone have an idea of what is going on? i took it a shop and they said it might be a misfire in the engine someone, but i wanted to ask ppl on here first..

thanks
alot

ro

I had the same problem. Is the check engine light on?

Here's my thread from it. Turns out one of my coil packs was bad. It's an easy fix that you can easily do yourself.
