I went to my machanic and he removed a coil pack and then replaced it with a new one and the problem whent away FOR A WHILE. Once it started sputtering again I replaced the other two coil packs. The problem whent away again (I THINK) now the problem with sputtering only happens when i am going up a hill and only during accelleration.
MY first thought was BAD GAS...second NOT ENOUGH GAS IN THE TANK...and Last FUEL SYSTEM needs to be cleaned. This car has 80,000 miles and runs perfect I just cant find why the sputtering is so intermittent.

What would cause a 1994 Buick Century to misfire and sputter?
You can check the battery connector. Make sure they are not corroded; and see if there isn't any melting on it; sometimes it will startup but drive rough, make sure the the connection is tight. Also I think platinum spark plugs come standard on some Buicks, which have a very small electrode and a little gunk will cause them to misfire; I would swapped them for a set of old champion copper plus spark plugs and a new set of spark plug wires.
