Problem Areas That have been or are being looked into *Computer data isn't revealing much per the mechanics *No check engine/indicator lights showing there are any problems Going up hill on a half tank of gas it seemed to be worse but that could be just my perception Occassionaly it will accellerate and shift into higher gears but not often. Flooring it doesn't rev the engine, it's almost like it's not getting more gas. It starts up perfectly, idles perfectly, just when you step on the gas it barely goes at all. It's like flooring a go-kart with a governor on it (sorry, best description I could come up with). Step on gas, car doesn't like to go over 10-20 miles an hour. It's been in the shop for 6 days now and they can't figure out the issue First time poster, long time Mazda owner with a 2002 Protege5 acceleration problem that I'm hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction on. ![]()
