hey guys need some help about a week ago my car started to lose acceleration power i dont know much about cars and my mechanic is away for the next 3 weeks the car is a 99 TF magna exec with 170,000 on the clock timing belt was done about 2 months ago along with a full service , the problem is mostly from 3rd 4th and 5th, thought it might have been bad batch of fuel so i put some 98 in and the problem is still there sorry for the lack of info guys but like i said i know nothing about the mechanical side i cars any help would be fantastic cheers.

Lots of stuff really. Hows idle quality? Any surging under load or pinging? When was the fuel filter last changed?
