Default acceleration issue

recently my car will have a burp while accelerating. It doesn't do it all the time its just once in a while could this be related to the spark plugs. Or maybe fuel pump or something along those lines?

a coil pack is pretty easy to change, not much harder than installing an air filter, you just unplug all theplug wires, the stock ones are numbered so you cant mix them up. you have to take off the plastic that surrounds the left side of the intake manifold, exposing the coil pack. there is a connecter that you must remove that has something like 3 or 4 wires going to it, you'll see what i mean when you take it apart. then there are 4 bolts holding the coilpack to the head, remove those bolts and replace the coilpack with the new one. reverse the steps fire it and go for a drive.

this is most likely your problem, but you could try some fuel injector cleaner first. its not to expensive.
