As the subject dictates ^^

I am feeling a rather large difference in power that seems to be coming on randomly. At times, I have a lot of kick but it really bogs down at other times. The weird thing is, the motor is revving normally no matter how sluggish its feeling. Even when its pulling hard, I can feel a distinct pulse in acceleration. There is also a distinct whine when I rev it in gear (throwout bearing?)

I'm totally in the dark as far as the electronic sensors and whatnot and money is really tight. I just replaced the fuel injectors (2 of them leaked) and the car smells like it might be running rich. Anyone have anything I can check or look for, or maybe even fix without having to shell out for parts?

Thanks a lot guys

Mike

Bump, no check engine light and all the stock gauges are behaving fairly normal. Time for bed, I hate 3rd shift. :-(
