Hi guys i was wondering if someone could help me!

The problem i'm getting is that when i'm accelerating it momentarily cuts out for a second. I'm finding it happens when my foot is to the floor between 4 and 5000 rpm. The rev counter drops to 3000 and then it goes back.

At first i thought it might be because the fuel was a bit low but its still happening on three quarters of a tank. I've also changed the fuel pump but this has made no difference.

Thanks
