Re: Acceleration Problems,

[jtrealty@xxxx]

The first thing to check is the frequency valve. It should be buzzing 
like an angry hornet on the right side valve cover. This is the fuel 
enrichment circuit and if it isn't working it makes accelerating 
difficult. The usual culprit is the lambda relay which provides power 
to the circuit and has a tendency to fail.
