Default Check Engine warning light, engine dies under acceleration

I have just replaced my NGK PFR7B spark plugs. The car feels really smooth again, but when I accelerate (not necessarily hard) the engine appears to die for 1-2 seconds then picks up again. It was doing this before I replaced the plugs and I was hopping new plugs would resolve the problem.
Any suggestions greatly received ;-)

If the CEL has illuminated then you need to check the error codes
