It would turn on while I was driving , and then it would go away and come back , it had some codes but we fixed those problems it just feels like something is clogged up or something cause I floor it and it won't do anything ! We checked the timing , pulled out the distributor and everything was good , the car just feels weakWelcome to Stangnet
I moved your thread to the '79-95' talk section. A lot more traffic from knowledgeable members through here.
Is the check engine light on?
Even if it's not,have you checked for codes? That's where I would start
Well I took it to a muffler shop and they put an coupe for 2 of the cats , but the other were left as is , so you think I should just eliminate the cats ?It sounds like your cats may be clogged. When they are clogged they restrict exhaust flow and only allow the engine to get to a certain rpm. That point is where the exhaust flow exceeds the amount the cats can handle, usually around 3000-3500 rpm. Take your car for a drive and see if it chokes off about the same rpm, then try it again in neutral at home and if it still does it at the same rpm then you have clogged cats.

5-Speed or Aod-E car?Well I took it to a muffler shop and they put an coupe for 2 of the cats , but the other were left as is , so you think I should just eliminate the cats ?
It's automatic , and honestly I don't remember what the codes were but the check engine light has been turning on and off so I'll check it, the distributor was put right in place as well as the firing order the car runs , if you give it's easy pace it will steadily pick up but if you try to floor it right of it won't respond it sounds forced5-Speed or Aod-E car?
Do you remember what the codes where for,and how you fixed them?
When you put the distributor back in,you verified the timing and the firing order?
yea the speedometer works , everything works car starts in park , I haven't tried in neutral and I've actually tried taking off in 1st then shifting to second at bout 3000 but it feels the same , I don't think it's a transmission problem but then again I heard that the 95 transmission isn't real reliable so I don't know , I actually took it with a mechanic that works strictly on transmissions and he's said it was perfectly fineSpeedometer works? Car starts in Park and Neutral?
Have you tried manually shifting it while flooring it?
But you were thinking itI hadn't mentioned fuel pressure yet
There is a diagnostic procedure, why didn't you at least Google for it instead of just throwing stuff out there with no proof.It sounds like your cats may be clogged.
