Engine bogs down. Can not build rp m's. Does not matter if in gear or not. Can floor it and r p m' will not go over 1000. Can eventualy build up and generate speed and power but when you stop or slow way down problem starts over again. Have replaced massair flow sensor and fuel filter. Have had to shop, dianostics showed cam shaft sensor bad they replaced and problem still exsits, they also unhooked exhaust with same results.
