I writing this about 140km from home. I started this morning with no issues with the car and all the driving was on the interstate and highways, right until the the very end. The more I drove on the interstate the more I had to floor it just to keep up with traffic. If I go up a hill on the interstate I have to floor it and sometimes the transmission doesn't want to shift down but even it it does it still takes a lot of effort to get up the hill and will even start to slow down steadily until you reach the top of the hill. On flat ground it takes quite awhile to pass a car.
I know this car only has 83bhp but it wasn't this bad in the past I can assure you. When I drive on a small incline in first I have to floor it and even if the revs are high it still struggles to climb a hill. The car does NOT buck and chuck at all when moving and the engine revs smoothly and there is no weird noises. The car did not stall but when stopped and idling the engine shakes noticeably and as you put a little bit of gas in neutral the engine smooths out. This does not matter weather the A/C is on or off.
The fuel filter has been changed recently and during the trip I put a bottle of Injector cleaner with the gas to see what would happen. Nothing changed.
No lights on the dash and the temp was in the middle. No smoke from the exhaust. Spark plugs were changed about 15k kilometers ago. I ALWAYS rev the [censored] out of this engine due to its lack of power and nothing like this has happened before.
PLEASE HELP.
