May not be the same but my car had a massive vacuum leak and it acted really similar. I didn't think mine was the fuel pump because during acceleration it ran smooth it was at idle and cruising that I noticed it acting up. Mine eventually tripped a SES code as it was trying to run lean. So check out all your vacuum and pcv sys tubes.... and hope it's not the fuel pump cause that's a [insert explicitive here] to change out!
