The fuel pump delivers fuel from the fuel tank to the engine. If it becomes clogged, damaged, or fails, it can restrict the fuel supply and cause the engine to lose power during acceleration.
2. Dirty Fuel Filter
The fuel filter removes impurities and contaminants from the fuel. If it becomes clogged, it can restrict the fuel flow and cause the engine to lose power during acceleration.
3. Faulty Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor
The MAF sensor measures the amount of air entering the engine. If it becomes dirty, damaged, or fails, it can send incorrect signals to the engine control unit (ECU), which can lead to a loss of power during acceleration.
4. Faulty Oxygen (O2) Sensor
The O2 sensor measures the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas. If it becomes dirty, damaged, or fails, it can send incorrect signals to the ECU, which can lead to a loss of power during acceleration.
5. Faulty Spark Plugs or Wires
Spark plugs and spark plug wires are responsible for igniting the fuel mixture in the engine. If they become worn, damaged, or fouled, they can cause the engine to lose power during acceleration.
6. Faulty Ignition Coil
The ignition coil provides electrical current to the spark plugs. If it becomes faulty, it can lead to a loss of spark and cause the engine to lose power during acceleration.
7. Vacuum Leak
A vacuum leak can cause the engine to lose power because it allows unmetered air into the engine, which can disrupt the air/fuel mixture.
8. Clogged Catalytic Converter
The catalytic converter is designed to reduce emissions by converting harmful pollutants into less harmful substances. If it becomes clogged, it can restrict the exhaust gas flow and cause the engine to lose power during acceleration.
