Hey everyone thanks for all the input, cleaning the fuel filters sounds like a place to start, .......Kerry I don't know what the rpms were there is no tackometer but it did sound like it was downshifting, I remember as I was on the highway only being able to go 45 mph I had the pedal all the way to the floor and then pushing a lot harder just to see if that would make a difference, and the pedal didn't really move much more but the rpms did jump up significantly at that time, the car has 150000 miles I just bought it and it normally seems to shift alright except going from 1st to second its seems a bit hard and a few second delay before the turbo kicks in and it takes off. ....tobybul The turbo definitely was working going at slower speeds and driving around the city streets, I'll start with the fuel filters that seems like the most logical thing to start with, Thanks for all the help guys I'll check it and see how it goes!
