Default my car is loading up on fuel.....

sat afternoon i decided to take some weight out my crx. (my 2 12's) that night went out to race and it was rather a bit cooler than normal. but my car was loading up on gas really bad. id be at a light and idleing fine but when i started to accel. it would bog like crazy and i would have to rev to about 5 grand to clear it out then it would work fine. if im rolling at a staged speed it would do it as well. any ideas on why this is all of a sudden happening?

Wow, my car is starting to do the same kinda that at the moment. I find if I let off the gas all the way and accelerate again, it revs alright.

Here is my thread... do high-jacking intended man.

Are you sure its bogging down because of too much fuel? Too little fuel will do the same thing. The first thing that came to my mind was that your throttle position sensor(TPS) might be sticking. The TPS is one of the most important sensors when it comes to fuel management and if it is sticking and thinks you are at low throttle, it will only send minimal fuel thus making your car bog down. Anything else I can think of would probably make your car run worse at idle and then run better as you increase RPMs, but here they are: bad air flow sensor, oxygen sensor, or spark distribution(plugs, wires, distribution unit, or any combo of those)
