I have a 1998 ford ranger. When I accelerate, it seems to not have the power. When I go up a hill, I loose power no matter what gear. I have replaced the spark plugs, fuel filter, and air filter. What else could it be? It also does idle a little high. Thanks

If it's running smooth when this happens, you might want to have it checked for a restricted exhaust.

It does seem to be running smooth, no skips.
