Default Car is jerking under acceleration??

I have an 05' 350z manual transmission 30,000 miles.It seems as if when it rains or if I wash the car as I'm driving home or whatnot that the car starts jerking almost like its cutting out? If I let off the gas it stops.Sometimes it will do it again as soon as I give it gas again not always? It kind of reminds me of when you get a little water in your tank or something like that? None of the gauges change nor does the car stall,just the cut out-jerking feeling. Anyone have this problem resolved?? Any help would be great.Thanks in advance Mike P.S. If their is already a thread like this sorry,I couldnt find it...

Do you have an aftermarket intake? I had the same thing happen to me. I bought an 06 with an AEM CAI and every time it rained I had to basically drive like a ***** or it would jerk and sputter. I just needed a bi-pass valve....problem solved.
