I have recently been experiancing a problem with my '95 SE/2.5/MTX. After start up in morning (doesn't seem to be temp dependent), the car has no power! Almost wants to die on me. I can let it warm up and usually do but this doesn't help. It will idle fine, but pull out and no power. The car just doesn't seem to rev. correctly. I am not sure if it is not getting fuel or air. I can floor it with no real effect until it opens the secondaries, then there is a huge surge in power. One day I was pissed about the way it was running and wanted to see what would happen so I floored it and slowly the RPMs climbed until the secondaries kicked in and the change between before the secondaries and after was enough to "bark" the tires. The car will act this way through first and second, and will not change until after I have gotten on a main road and made it into 3rd. Then it seems fine. Runs normal.
I am not sure that it is realated but for a while I had an odd "stail" spot when eccelerating moderatly in second gear when leaving work. This was going on for a while. Pull out onto the main street trying to beat traffic accelerate fine until shift into 2nd and then flat for a second and then off she would go, and no prob. after that. This is what she used to do before the new problem.
I am thinking IAC, fuel pressure regulater or pump. I am going to go ahead and change the fuel filter this weekend and see if this helps, but I am thinking it has to be something else.
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

Get your codes checked. Might be a o2 sensor. I think that is what caused mine to act similarly.

I replaced the fuel filter 2 days ago and it still acts the same.
I am thinking that my problem is fuel related though. When I was replacing the filter I first pulled the pump fuse and tried to run it out of fuel before changing the filter. Car would idle fine, but try and press the pedal to give it gas and it would spit, spudder, and slightly backfire through the intake. I had noticed a day or two ago that this is the same that it does in the morning.
Thinking maybe fuel pressure regulator. I will have to hook up my guage when I have the time.
I don't think it is the O2 senser because I have replaced them not too long ago, and I am getting no CEL.
