On a Ford Escort, when I take off in a hurry it putters and doesn't wanna just "go." However, if I ease on the gas, it will not show any signs of defect. The "check engine" light is on, and it does it only when I punch on the gas. Also, it does it in reverse, and in if I punch it on the freeway. It just broke 115,000 miles. Has anyone else had this same problem and what did you have to do to fix it?

The check engine light is on for a reason. Go to an Auto Zone and they will scan it for free and this will point you in the right direction to go as far as repaing the problem goes.

A car this old and with this many miles will start to have problems. And the check engine light is not there for you to laugh at. It means that you have a problem. SOOOOOO I am thinking that the piece of crap may not be the car. Have the codes pulled so you can fix the reason it is "puttering". And stop whining dude! These are usually pretty reliable automobiles. IF you take care of them!
And the next things that will happen... radiator hoses, belts, (Including the timing belt.) cv joints and rubber boots. Take care of the little car man.
I haven't had a bit of trouble with my 99 escort. have a scanner put on it, it's probably an easy fix.
My 1998 Escort had similar problems last year and it ended up being the transmission.....check your fluid if its low your lines may be leaking...if that is not what it is, it could be yor spark plugs or fuel filter.. Good luck.
