NOT SURE WAS UP WITH MY CAR

Last night my car was acting strange when I would completely stop the feels like it was sputtering, like it was jerking forward, or as if there was beating heart in the engine… when I reverse it would feel like it was hesitating to move like for some reason it was losing power can any one help me out with this

maf, clean that first, then go to auto zone or find a place that checks codes for free. maf- mass air flow sensor, easy, take your air box off, there's a write up in the stickies for that. you just spray crc all inside where the hotwire is and put it back together, 30 minutes, tops. fuel filter, see when you did that last. let us know what happens.
