hi

i seem to get a kind of hesitation / reluctantcy to rev under full load between 4/5 thousand rpm, it does get there under protest so far i have put recommended plugs leads,dis cap and arm and have just put on a new coil today and it still does the same bloody thing , but what i did notice was when accelarating with graduale pressure it pulls to 5000 rpm more cleanly but again if i floor it it goes back to struggling to reach 5000 rpm or more.

has anyone got any ideas as to what could be causing this problem ie could it be the air flow meter as i am thinking along the lines of taking it to bits , but it is a sealed unit.

below 4tho rpm the car runs lovly and sounds great,

thank

tony
