   i know this has been covered several times but no one seems to have had the exact same problem as i am currently having, basicly i lose power when i put my foot down to pick up speed in any gear and it dont pick up until the revs hit over 3k and when it gets to high revs it sounds like a lorry and rough, could these problems be coilpack and not running on all cylinders?

   Could be the above 2 things also may just need a good service.

   i agree with the coilpack and a service, now thinking that it could be the map sensor?

   definately give it a good service. mine was rough as fuck, new oil, filter, plugs and cleaning the air filter gave it a new life!
   
   otherwise, coilpack. map sensor maybe?

   I had the lamba sensor fall out once and yes it rev'd like hell and sounded like a dying jumbo yet ! lol failing that change spark plugs and air filter .
