Unhappy Engine Drinking Gas And Stuttering Bad

PEOPLE I REALLY NEED SOME HELP!!!!!!!!!!!! My car is stuttering BADLY and drinking gas like there is NO TOMORROW. I tried some buhrmans like the seafoam and did exactly like some members said to do and it still is doing the same thing. Do you think I need a new engine? It can't be the factory Fuel Pressure regulator right? I am dumbfounded at this point. I do not know what else to do. The car is not over heating so it's not the head gasket. I replaced the MAF 3 times and it would work for a sec then it won't. Each time I purchased a used one. "I think I bought the last one from the junkyard I know...that guy is probably tired of me" I really need an answer, because I do not want to keep spending unnecessary money that I can get fixed in one shot. Thank you in advance for all the useful insight.

Sounds like a fuel filter problem. I had that same problem on my work van. Stutters, poor acceleration, terrible gas mileage. $50 fix and it's like new again.

sounds liek a problem i had on my 240sx.
try changing the fuel filter, spark plugs, wires, and see if your fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator is ok. if that doesnt work, check for vac leaks?
