if it's really bad.. i'd suggest the converter, but check air filter and such first.. as its alot cheaper and less work

Is it only when the engine is hot? I know when I leave for work at 4AM in the morning, it's quick as snot.<p>But in mid-day, like today, when it's over 100 degrees and the engine is warmed up - it's downright pathetic.

What exactly happens? When you floor it it just doesn't accelerate, or does it hesitate and bugles?
Try checking spark plugs and wires.. does the engine check light come on?
