1989 Mazda 929 problems please help

It's Auto
Year 1989
Type: Sedan
Kms: 282800 or something like that.


Hey! I'm fairly new to cars. I got this one in november last year. And since then I have had so many problems with it!

#1. It has a flat spot. When I put my foot on the accelerator, It goes really really slow. And revs soooo much!

#2. After I stop at traffic lights, and have to go again, my car doesn not want to go anywhere! I put my foot down and again it revs soooo much ! It goes to that 3000 rpm and I look at the speed and it's only doing about 40km/h! After a while, it finally speeds up. Possibly a transmission thing?

#3. It's terrible on fuel! Are all 929s bad on fuel. I put $20 worth of petrol in it, and it gets me about 35kms and that's it!

#4. WHere does all my petrol go? When my car is half full. And I park it, and when I start it again. It says I only have 1/4! How can that be?

#5. When I have to reverse. It won't move if I tap the accelerator. I have to put put my foot down on it hard.


are these common probs with 929s?
any advice on what I should do to fix this? Thanks in advance
