Hey, im new to this forum and new to hyundai''s. I bought a 2000 accent it has the 1.5 SOHC motor and its a 5 speed, when i bought it it had a hard time starting so i traced that back to the MAF sensor, and it solved it. But latley it has a really bad stutter when you hit the gas it almost stalls out, and when you take off from lights you have to rev it up first before you try to accelerate because otherwise it just starts sputtering and wants to stall. I have got a check engine light for a slow reacting O2 sensor so i replaced both of them and it idles smooth now but it still has the same problem on take off or when you hit the throttle. So im lost at what to do now so any advise will help

Could be ignition wires, low fuel pressure along with clogged injectors, vacuum leak, air filter or a dented exhaust pipe and just bad gasoline.
