Default Please Help

I did a search and couldnt find anything exactly like this. Well......got another problem now. Had my cutout put on a day ago and the car ran fine. Today, I was cruising around and gave it a moderate amount of gas and it started hesitating, kind of bucking. Happened around 1800-2400 or so.....didn't take it any higher than that though. It doesn't seem to do it when I apply the gas S L O W L Y, only at a moderate rate. Doesnt do anything while stopped but backfire, and thats only when I rev it up. And when I let off, it would backfire. Runs good at idle, about 750 rpms or so. Could it be tuning? I heard it takes the computer a few miles to relearn everything. I'm hoping it's something simple like my a/f. Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

shouldnt take a few times for the computer to learn seeing as how its constantly reading off the MAF and O2's..

Found the problem!!!! Opened the hood and started her up. Right there in front of my face were 3 loose plugs! I guess that'll do it. I was hoping it would be something that simple!
