power is very limited during acceleration.
just for something to do, i'm going to try a rebuilt carb for it, get a set of new plugs, test the wires, check the timing. my dad said he had some sort of meter used for doing the timing...it's not a gun tho. he said it was a dwell meter or something. see what that does. and if the problem still persists, I guess change the timing chain/gears...and after that clean the intake manifold...and if that doesn't work...REPLACE THE DARN VEHICLE!

The dwell meter will not be of any use to use for setting the timing. Dwell meters were used back in the days of point ignition to adjust the point gap. The dwell is basically the amount of time the current is flowing to the coil to charge it for firing. In electronic ignition systems the dwell is calculated by the ignition module and is non-adjustable. You will need a timing light to check the timing.

out of the carb..
my little drive home found out the engine refuses to accellerate in 3rd gear no matter the amount i try to accelerate, it grunts for a second then downs to 2nd. found a new carb for $240, dad said he'd help me out with it and take half..a rebuild kit is $50, so given the time to put the kit in and the assumption I do it all correctly.. $120 isn't bad for a new carb...i'm gonna be choked if that doesn't help  at the same time i'll change plugs, wires, rotor and cap too just for benifit of the doubt.found an extra gallon of syntech lying around today too! woohoo
