Power Problem...

Ok, When my car idles, the power is fine. Then, when hit the gas, the clock dims, and starts to lose power. When it goes back to idle, normal power is restored. When I'm driving, the power dims and eventually shuts on and off, studdering the car. Then, I go back to idle, and the car gets power again.

Any suggestions?????

Thanks,
-Phantom

If you go to a non-dealer mechanic it shouldn't be more then a $100.
