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...

ok i mean

like it has significatn power
1st gear hardly even goes up a small hill
the muffler sounds like sh*t!
basically when u sit it on idle its fine..
when u accelerate feels and sounds like its gna blow!
i have reset the ECU as well

it doesnt happen then go.. it doesnt go away! my cars ***ed! LOL

sounds like missfire.
check your leads and plugs.

**XP02ED** · 31-10-2006 11:23 PM

checked..

sparks checked and clean..
leads all fine..
checked injectors.. and cleaned
changed fuel filter

BTW i cant even reach 20 KMS

^^^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)
