Whats wrong with my car now?

[SHOemup]

It's an odd problem. It seems as if when I start my car and go, There is a ton of resistance between 3-5K RPMs. I have to let the secondaries open before the car runs right. It feels as if the car is pushing, but something isn't opening to let something out. That probably doesn't make sense to you guys. It doesn't matter if the car sits overnight or for 15 minutes, If i shut it off, and re-start it, the first time i try to accelerate it resists. It resists until I let the secondaries open to "clear" it out. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Maybe there's a lot of gunk in your intake, and the secondaries are either staying open or closed when you turn off the car? Or maybe there's a vacuum leak somewhere in the system.

My car did that and I ended up having to put brakes all the way around it and that took car of it check your calipers maybe you've got a hose being pinched or you have a caliper locking up giving your car resistance or at least that was what my problem was odd i know but not it's okay

Check the rear disks. I had the right slider rust up. It would not let the brake return away from the pad. I got worse and worse. I replaced the boss that holds the disc. Could be the problem.

i had the same problem on my 93. Buy some intake cleaner, and spray the element on your air sensor. You'll need to take off your filter box top. You'll see a little hole behind the metal meshing, spray for about 3 seconds, than let dry for 10 min and drive.
