I had a similar problem this summer which I cured by replacing an
ailing spark plug wire (one was visibly dead, but I replaced them all
with ND's wire set). YMMV, but I'd give your ignition system a
thorough check/cleaning. When I first got my car, the hall sender
was loose and caused random sputtering... you might want to check
that as well.
Good luck,

I have an unusual problem with my car that started on
and off yesterday and today was doing it all day. It
sputters with hardly any power under 3000 rpms and
then drives fine, so basically I rev the engine enough
to get over the hump at a red light and then keep it
in a lower gear to avoid the problem. Any suggestions
as to what to check? spark plugs? timing?
