i have a 95 3.4 5 speed. I dont know whats wrong or what to look for, but around 3000 to 3500 rpms the motor sounds like it is screaming for the next gear and acts like it dont want to go any higher. When i put it to the floor it falls on its face but when i have it half throttle it picks up speed just fine. any ideas on what could be wrong?

 

any codes?

 

Clogged fuel filter, restricted exhaust/cat converter, terribly dirty air filter, fuel pump crapping out, bad batch of gas, neighbors cat wedged in the intake tube.

 

i took it to autozone and had them hook it up and no codes poped up so im lost

 

lol i was getting an engine out of the junkyard for a focus once and found 3 dead mice in the intake tube and 1 in the actual intake (how he got past the butterfly, idk)

 

it has a new cold air kit and new exhaust from front to back

 

The other 3 prolly pushed him through. lol

 

are you sure they were able to scan your car? the 95 has a odd obd system. its obd1 but an obdII plug (most autoparts stores cant scan 95 gm cars)

 

needless to say i moved on to the next engine, who knows what kind of damage was caused by the mice in the engine.

 

he might not have it took him twenty minutes or so to hook it up
