Hello...

My problem is this: Whenever I accelerate, a rough, sluggish sound and feeling comes from the engine. It's usually when I am going uphill (pushing my engine). It doesn't really happen when the car is fresh and cold in the morning or the first 5 minutes of driving, but as I start to drive, it starts to do it. So as it gets warm and hot, it starts.
I am getting the feeling there is like build up in my pistons or something, and it's making my acceleration make a rough, weak sound.
What do you think this is? It's an acceleration problem, so something has to be wrong with an acceleration part.
Would Fuel System Cleaner be good to use?
Thanks so much!
