Hi slangy,

There are many possible reasons for poor performance and it could be ignition, fuel, transmission or mechanically related.

Was any repairs carried prior to this happening?
Is the Check Engine Light showing?
Are the gears shifting correctly?

Your vehicle is stated as an automatic, and for 98 models they come only in 4 speed mode.

What is the trans code?
