engine 'chokes' during acceleration 850 1992

I'm driving a 92 850 glt with manual transmision.
Recently I experienced some problems. When I try to accelerate, the engine immediately losses power and almost completely "chokes". I'm able to drive it only if I accelerate really slowly. The same also occurs in idle running - when pushing the gas pedal quickly the engine "chokes". I am however able to drive normaly at constant speed (even high speed).
I checked the ECU fault codes, but no fault codes are given for the ignition and fuel systems. I also cchecked the condition of the spark plugs and they seem to be OK too.
What could be the reason for my problems?
Thanks for any help.

Replace your GAZ FILTER

Check the distributor cap, rotor and spark leads.
Also could be a vacuum leak somewhere.

you might also look into your air filter, gas filter, clean throttle body.
