Takes off ok but then like boggs down and will not acelerate right. Tops off about 50 mph. I can push gas pedal to floor and nothing, dont even hear engine rev up with gas pedal floored. In park engine revs up fine. Replaced fuel pump 6 months ago. Replaced fuel filter, spark plugs, spark plug wires, changed out transmission fluid and filter, and put in the $20 can of gas treatment from dealership in gas. I did all that in the last week. Still not much inprovment. Any help would be great. Thanks

Lack of acceleration, chugging, hesitating, bogging etc. Could be caused by one of the following below:

Oxygen sensor.
Catalytic converter.
Fuel injectors dirty/sticking.
Mass airflow sensor/Airflow meter.
Throttle position sensor.
Crankshaft position sensor
Knock sensor
Manifold absolute pressure sensor.
EGR Valve
Fuel pressure regulator leaking or defective fuel pump.
False air leakage.
Fuel contamination.
Foul/defective spark plugs.
Open spark plug wires.
Ignition coil/Coil packs defective.
Incorrect ignition timing.
Cap and rotor.

Note:If it doesn't apply disregard it
