When you push the gass pedal it spits and sputters

It starts and idles fine. when you push the gas pedal it spits and sputters like it isn't getting gas. just changed the fuel pump, filter, and throttle body. I have come to the conclusion that it isn't fuel related.

SOURCE: throttle body in 2001 Passat

throttle body is located at intake manifold ..follow snorkle from air cleaner to where it attaches to motor ..looses hose and clean with carb cleaner there..open blades(throttle) to get behind entry good also..... fuel filter is located in tank and in line from fuel tank just in front of tank inline with fuel line...good luck

Ignition system sounds probable on vhicle when everything gets warmed up. High pitched hum could be bad tire or worse bearing.

Testimonial: "Thank You for your response. The huming sound is present on idle from start-up,tires have just been replaced, would fuel pump be suspect?"

Sounds to me like your choke is malfunctioning. Take the cover off of your carb when cold and see if the choke (top buttefly valve) is closed. It should be when cold. (you do not say what year truck you have so I am guessing as to the answer)

Van Sputters And Loses All Power When I Accelerate

Internal combustion engines requires 3 things... fuel, air, and spark. You do not have enough of one or more of these. If the wires and plugs are old, change them.  Air filter, same thing.  Fuel filter can also clog up with stuff after awhile. When you take a look at the air filter check where the air comes from.  It is possible a little critter has built a home and blocked the air flow (rare, but, it has happened).
