Default C4 Rough Acceleration at just above idle to about mid range

So I was hoping someone had the cure or at least what to look for. I have an issue with the engine sounds good at idle and cruising altitude but, when you accelerate is hesitates and bucks at just above an idle until you hit about mid acceleration. I noticed that the temp gauge has stopped working at all and wondered if this could be sending false info to the computer?

Is it the digital gauge? If so sensor for that is on the water pump check that first. Second how old is your o2?

There is no way on earth that air filter is clean enough to ensure proper performance. Start by cleaning it then re-evaluate.

I cant stand any cotton gauze filters. Nothing but problems. I realize the op has basically no choice due to the s/c ....
