The car starts fine, idles OK, but upon heavy acceleration it starts missing and stumbling. Did plugs, cap, rotor, wires, clean injectors, air filter, with very little difference. Exhaust does not seem clogged, on the acceleration you can feel the exhaust increasing and then the missing, so it does not appear to be a clogged or restricted exhaust
