Sounds like an ignition issue.  Acceleration is when a faulty plug
wire, carbonized distributor cap or rotor or a bad spark plug can rear
it's ugly head.  Longer pulses of engine power -no engine power
would probably be fuel related, but stuttering or the plug wire off
syndrome is probably ignition. I would start there.
