A Cavalier can sputter do to a number of things. Cars sputter due to bad spark plugs, bad compression, broken engine mounts, or even a failing catalytic converter.
Some possible causes for the engine to sputter: Bad fuel pump not enough pressure Bad fuel injector Bad air filter Bad fuel filter Bad spark plugs or wires
bad fuel bad spark plugs incorrect timing
Gas tank is empty...gauge could be wrong. Clogged or blocked fuel line. Dirty fuel filter. Bad fuel pump.
9 out of 10 times on that car it is bad wires. They get weak from the amount of heat put off by the exhaust manifild right there. Also plugs and distributor cap and rotor.
