    IF YOU CODE SCAN ALL IS GOOD ENGINE NEED TUNE UP.REPLACE FUEL FILTER CLEAN , REPLACE AIR FILTER, CLEAN FUEL INJECTORS, REPLACE SPARK PLUGS AND PLUGS WIRES. CHECK CONDITION SPARK PLUGS IF LOOK LIKE CARBON SOOT YOU HAVE FUEL PROBLEM. IF SPARK PLUGS HAS OIL DEPOSITS ON THE YOU HAVE WORN VALVE GUIDES AND VALVE SEALS,WORN PISTON RINGS EITHER CONDITIONS WILL CAUSE HARD STARTING AND MISFIRING.

Why does my 2000 S80 T6 sputter between 45 and 65mph?

misfire? check for bad coil (your engine has 6 coils) not hard to replace.

1984. Why does it run fine during cold weather and sputter when it is warm and I punch the gas pedal?

could be low float level, low pump pressure/supply
blocked fuel filter
when cold the engine is running on choke setting which draws more fuel from the carby
when it is warm the choke is off and if you have a flat spot ( (sputter) , that indicates a lack of fuel or maybe a bad accelerator pump or power valve
if the carby is a holley then replace the power valve and overhaul the accelerator pump.

My 1992 SE sputters when accelerating and sometimes stalls out

It is a clear case of the fuel pump malfunctioning. As not enough fuel is being pumped when accelerating, the engine sputters and stalls. The pump could be needing servicing. Nothing serious. Happens. So, please have it serviced.

Car spudders when i put in gear

This is water in your fuel lines. when it was very cold, the water in the lines froze. when it melts, it runs to the injector system and causes these types of things to happen during acceleration. i would pick up some techtron. ths is good stuff. it will remove the water and, clean out the fuel system.
