No, fuel cut is the ECU shutting off the fuel injectors, this happens when the mas airflow sensor reads to many Hz(to much air). Check for: Boost leaks, fuel pressure/flow problems, base timing, plug wires, coil packs, transistor pack, injectors failing, fouled plugs, that is where I would start looking.

Thats pretty much what I said but in more newbish terms. The engine doesn't get enough fuel because the mas reads too much air. Not tryin to argue or anything, because I'm sure you understand the topic at hand more in depth than myself.

Try changing the spark plugs first.

alright, here is what i'll do, i'll probably start by changing out the spark plugs, spark plug wires, i've already checked for any vaccum or air leaks (visually) nothing is loose, i will peform a boost leak test this weekend, i am away in college right now, and don't have any of the tools. i have also notice the lights flickering now as well, is there any relation to the problem the car already has? thanks.
