Corolla hesitating and running rough when I press on the gas.

My 94 Corolla (1.8L) starts rough but when it warms up it idles ok. When I press on the gas it idles really rough. When I put it in gear it won't run well. It hesitates and can barely run.

I replaced the timing belt but that had no effect. I replaced the rotor and spark plugs with no difference in performance.

What should I be looking for? Could it be a bad cylinder if so why does it idle ok in park or neutral? It only idles rough when I press on the gas.

Please help. Thank you. -Hans

It is not a bad cylinder, rotor, or spark plugs.

Check for vacuum leaks, cracks or poor seals in the intake tube between the air filter and the throttle body, stuck idle air control valve.
