93 model. How many miles on it? Timing belt should have been replaced at or around 100000. Do not over look this if it breaks or jumps time you will be replacing some or all of the valves. Also if sparks plugs have not been changed I would do that also. Platinum plugs is a must. These cars have all kinds of weird performance issues if using cheap or old spark plugs. Also check air filter. also it has a 10 to 1 compression ratio. Good high octane fuel is a must for it to perform properly. Hope this helps.
