    2002 intrepid has transmission problems, but now it cuts out at about
    2500 rpms around 65-70 mph if you push the gas it does it more,when
    you let off the gas and rpms go below 2500rpms or 65-70 mph it stops
    until you reach those rpms or mph. Any idea of what would cause this
    to happen.

    Please better describe "transmission problems" and "cuts out" ... I myself
    have no idea what you are experiencing from your description. Also please
    provide the engine size, mileage, and maintenance history too if you want
    useful responses.

    engine is 2.7 mileage is 168380 not real sure on maintenance
    history. when i do about 65-70 the car jerks like it is not getting
    gas the more i push on the gas the more in jerks if i let off the gas
    and the rpms and mph drops below 2500rpms and the mgh below 65 it stop
    until it reaches the point. these are the codes i have for the
    transmission.OK so i took it and got the fault codes p0731,gear 1
    ratio
    incorrect,, p1776 solenoid valve stuck in l/r mil code 071ENHANCED,
    and the last one isp0841 trans fluid
    press sensor/switch A ckt range/perf

    With regard to not getting fuel and given the mileage, has the fuel pump
    ever been replaced? Also not sure if that year has a replaceable fuel
    filter or not, but that also would be a possibility in my mind.

    The circumstances/situation you describe where you accelerate while already
    at high speed would call for a high volume of fuel and the symptoms you
    describe would seem to indict to a delivery problem.

    This could be related to the trans error codes, but also could be
    independent too.

    Well.... you might try checking out the systems that the fault codes
    are telling you are having troubles. From your question, I'll bet the
    first thing you need to do is to buy a factory (not Haynes, not
    Chilton's, factory) service manual.
