I have a 94 Mercury Topaz that recently was exhibiting that symptom, but it didn't start until after a mechanic replaced my fuel pump. Apparently he installed a universal pump and may have damaged it upon installation. I put up with that for about 6 months until the car also started dying on hot days. A new mechanic installed a better quality pump, and now my car runs fine.

What causes a 1990 cutlass ciera hesitate and sputter when gas pedal is depressed or crusing and symptoms stop when brake is applied?
A 1990 Cutlass Ciera might hesitate and sputter when the gas pedal is depressed because of water in the fuel or because of damaged or dirty fuel injectors. You might also have an issue with the wiring or the distributor.
When in park or neutral if I rev my Ford Taurus engine to 4000rpms it starts to sputter What could cause this?
This is by design, as the engine is not under load. the engine computer shuts off the fuel injectors, there is no hysteresis so the injectors turn back on quickly once below 4000rpm, and the cycle repeats. This also happens when the speedometer maxes out, in my case, 180kM/h, the fuel injectors shut off.
Why would a 1986 Nissan pickup start to sputter and turn off when put into gear?
Try the rotor(under the cap). mine was burn't, talk about shake rattle and roll I've had 3 Nissan pu's greg also, check your vacume lines. Even one can cause sputter. There is a wire coming out of the bottom of your distribitur. if it gets frayed, it can have the same result. Check your fuel flow. dirty carb or fuel injectors will cause it to sputter and or die when put in gear.
