since my last post about air flow meters the problems got worse and i need help, please!

When i accelerate it pulls away ok and suddenly loses all power for a couple of seconds and then it kicks in again, it will do this two or three times before settling down, when i change up a gear it does it again etc etc, once its been going for a while it seems to be ok. it all started when the idle started hunting last friday, i have done the following to it so far;- cleaned stepper, butterfly valve, interim service by garage who replace water temp sensor, cleaned electrical connections on AFM, what else can i do?

Have you checked for fuel starvation? Knackered pump, kinked pipe, blocked filter, pressure reg....

Food for thought.

HT Lead,spark plug,ignition coil,disributor cap could be any of them or none.
Has to be a process of elimination im afraid IMO
Nightmare but if you do it yourself it won't hurt as much.
