last night i cranked my car and it wouldn't rev above 4500-5000rpm under WOT,but it will at around 25%open throttle.
usually after a few min of driving this will clear up.i stopped at the car wash and killed my car.when i went tocrank the car it would go to start then die.it did this 5 times before it actually started.when i left the car wash it still wouldn't rev above 4500-5000rpmunder WOT,but would at about 25% open throttle.
i disconnected the battery for about 20min then went to crank it and it didn't start the 1st time but it did the 2nd time.now the car would rev normal,but had a lack of power.
when i drove down the road i brought it to 5000rpm in 2nd and punched it.
at WOT i could feel the lack of power but when let off the throttle to about 25%,you could feel the power come back.
does this have somthing to do with my fuel system ie:fuel pump,fuel filter,fuel injectors??
thanks guys.
