my car drives perfectly fine, but when i stomp on the gas, the tranny slips, but only slips when i stomp on the gas and it feels like the car wants to go faster but doesn't.

Show me where you found a question in there. Also explain how plugs, wires, and a timing belt effect trans slippage.

some people do not know what trans slippage is when its sputtering and hesitation or jerking and not spark hitting from 5 yrs of college and ASE cert some people might think its slippage,so you narrow it down from spark to fuel to slippage,cause there is a lot of people that just do not know so we try to teach them and diagnose whats i wrong not just assume
you break it down for them and see what it is, knowing our trannys its probably slippage but about a car you do not assume you diagnose

Broke it down.

No spark and no fuel have very different characteristics from a trans slipping.

If you don't have the skill level to start pulling plugs and swapping trans fluid, at least check the fluid level and color. You may find that you're low or your fluid is burnt. Is your check engine light on? Also, has the car always driven this way?
