V70 loss of power accelerating from standstill

My older car, a 92 Chevy Cavalier, had the same exact problem. I solved it by replacing the spark plug wires.

Many things can cause this problem here are some:

- Incorrect ignition timing - Clogged fuel filter ( Injection has been flushed) - Fualty emission systems component - Incorrect gapped spark plugs or faulty sparkplug wires - Vaccum leakes

Good luck! Per

The obvious thing to check is the temperature sensor for the computer.

For the record, the problem was in the distributor as was solved by replacing the "rotor arm" and leads. Don't know it was affected by heat but I guess when parts start to go wrong then heat can have such an effect. Thanks for your suggestions.

Thanks for the follow-up. Yes, the plastic in ignition parts can be affected by conditions. Wet weather more often brings out the worst, but there is no reason heat can't do it also.
