Me heads wrecked with the following problem:

My 98 suzuki swift cuts out for of the following reasons:
1. When i get to 3500 revs.
2. When im driving through a place where the air temperature suddenly drops.

The car cuts out. I have to pump the accellerator to get her going again. This is like jump starting the car.

I changed the fuel filter, spark plugs and air filter. Im thinking gasket or fuel pump but not sure how to single them out.

Anyone had a similar issue?
