I think i know what he means.

Are you half way through accelerating and then suddenly the car decideds to back off a bit and then sorta continue going but not like it used to??

i think i had that a few times... wen im accel i can feel the either level out or decrease for a split moment...
its not linear...

and going from 80 to 100 took some work sometimes... had trouble accel...

doesnt happen anymore for some weird reason...

^^^so no matter how hard u press the accelerator it just wont go? does that only happen on a cold start? maybe its the gasket?

DAMN!

Don't drive ya car man. Check the ECU for codes. Chances are you've got a faulty crank position sensor or something else serious. (timiing etc)

could be a busted cat, does the exahust sound like it straining and a loud hissing sound?

nah it aint the exhaust system %100 sure..

basically what i have done. is take injectors out and change the fuel..
it goes back to normal after 2 mins of driving.. it wont go faster than 20kms!

theres this clear piece of plastic in the injectors which filter the petrol off,

basically 3 of em were missing

oil ring is the ring around the injectors to your engine.. it wasnt sealed properly.

so basically just gta buy these pieces or someone selling injectors system
