I'd either try swapping the MAF (in the intake) or check the valve timing 
next. I'd favor checking the timing, though. Easy enough to do, pull the 
valve covers and turn to TDC. The pics you will need for reference on the 
cam gears are in the TB article of the AF Wiki knowledgebase.

Hello All,
1st. Happy New Year.....

2nd. This is killing me.
Patient: 1991 Lago Blue V8. 150+-k

Engine idles OK..
As you give it throttle it revs slowly(not driving). Sounds like it's 
bogging down.
Worse issue driving. Just feels like it won't go. On a slight incline, just 
about stops.
Occasionally get a 2113 code. Replaced the pass side dist. with a "supposed 
good one"
We have done new plugs, newer wires, new temp switch(back side of pass 
head), MAF(used), cleaned ISV. replaced fuel pump and filter(was filthy).
All the used parts were from a "good running" 3.6, same as mine.

On a longer drive, the cat light started flashing. Replaced, again with 
"supposed good cats"

ECU?

Whats left?

TIA,
Paul

Have a new 02 sensor, but not installed yet.
