Thanks everyone for your ideas and help! I'm not so experienced when it comes to this sort of thing!

DUDE, this is EXACTLY what my '99 SE was doing. I just posted about this yesterday, click here! I searched and didn't find anything (Until I searched AFTER I found the problem and had the PN in my hand). I will help in any way I can. VERY easy, and cheap, to fix. It's not like the engine is dying or anything, it's just gutless above 3750-4000 RPM, right?
No, the engine is fine most of the time.. what happens is mostly in 2nd or 1st gear when I am trying to accelerate hard (admittedly, ususally when I'm showing this 'problem' to someone else for their opinion..) what happens is the car seems to jerk... momentarily losing power... acceleration stops, and the engine seems to strain and produce kind of an inconsistent high reving sound, barely maintaining speed. At that point I ususally let up off the gas cause I can't bear to punish the engine like that. Sorry, thats the best I can do to explain it.
I'm gonna have to check out these things you guys have mentioned.. i'm kind of technically inexperienced so it might take me a while! but thanks for the help so far
