Default Car Trouble

ok, so when ever I start and go I get on the main road and give it gas, it bogs down then picks up. This only happens when I try to get on it, not when Im just cruising. Seems like its not getting enough fuel through and when it does, it picks up just fine. Keep in mind my SECURITY light is on and has been for well about a year now. I have read that it might be an issue with my key . Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Yes SES light is on also. Yes I replace the the fuel filter about 4 months ago. I think I'll go ahead and clean the injectors and see if that helps. Hope its not the fuel pump. Last ?, how would I know if the front or rear o2's are bad? I plan on doing headers soon and I am gonna have the rears deleted anyway.

check your fuel pressure and if its low then its your pump. Also you can check your fuel pump but putting the car in "Run " mode and you need to listen for a muffled humming noise

I'll check that out as well this afternoon. Thanks. Now what to do about that SECURITY light that is on? I've read I can clean the key and cylinder and see if that helps out any. I'll keep you all posted.
