Might sound simple, but if it's happening when you floor it, maybe the gas pedal is getting stuck in your floor mat?

but i do not know why this is happening now it never happened to me before
this started when i took out my engine forgot to loosen the two nuts that hold the cable on the throttle body so i guess it stretched out or something i am in the south Florida
