bad acceleration and sputtering at low rpm

My truck has been acting up for awhile now. When I accelerate it seems something is clogged or not firing until I reach an rpm when it just goes until I shift. Any ideas or similar troubleshoot.

Kiddie forum, huh? It's obvious who the immature one is. At least I know the difference between an engine and a motor. Learn to take a joke like an adult.

Yes. And it is getting annoying. Do you know anything about fuel or efi

We're gonna need a bit more info about your truck. What size engine does it have? Have you recently done a tune up? Sounds like a bad fuel filter

91 toyota pickup 22re 4wd spark plugs last year. Fuel filter before a fuel pump and gas tank. Could be clogged again. Seems to happen more when wet

Try something cheap first, like a fuel injector cleaner or fuel system cleaner. That just might do the trick.

If it's worse when wet, then it's possible your getting moisture
on some wiring or connection.
Also check for frayed wires and also make sure all your grounds are clean and tight.
