Subject:engine misses at low rpm's

Hey guy's
   I'm experiencing a strange miss at low rpm's.I just replaced plugs cap and rotor and did a visual inspection(in the light and in the dark)of the plug wires.Everything seem's to be in good order.The motor when just sitting there running has a small flutter,when I rev the motor up to about 1200 rpm's you can hear the miss.It kind of sound's like when you hold the accelerator to the floor.Like ther's a governor on it.Also when driving the car,if i'm accelerating it seem's to be just fine.BUT once I reach my desired speed it has a small jerk.No matter what speed that may be or what gear I may be in.If anyone has any suggestion's i would love to hear them.
Thank's to all
Stephen
