My car is breaking up/cutting out 1/4-full throttle, seems like it's quickly shutting off then on again, like no spark at times. could this be my coil or ignition module??? seems fine when crusing but with throttle, the more the worse.??????

My guess would be the coil. Have you taken a look inside your cap and rotor to see how it looks? TFI module generally will just die and won't allow you to start the car

That's what was happening right before my TFI module went out, it did that for a couple of days a few times then the next day car just shut off as I was driving it.
