Dave has left the building!

There are several things ONE would want to check
for a sudden loss of power under acceleration...

First place I would RECOMMEND is the OBD
(on board diagnostic) codes for any fuel pressure
or timing issues (beg, borrow or buy... scan tool...
(some muffler shops do this for free)).

If more than one DTC (diagnostic trouble code) points to air metering, oxygen or throttle body issues.. It's time to (slowly) take your accent down to the muffler shop and make sure a rusted/corroded catalytic converter and/or muffler is NOT blocking the EXHAUST.

(If you wait until that rusted baffle comes completely loose you will the be able to trouble-shoot a LOT EASIER
(car won't start at all)).

Hope this helps!

2005 Hyundai accent sudden loss of acceleration/power and rumbling noise

If you invested all the money you've spent on parts, you could have paid for a qualified technician to troubleshoot and repair your problem, and have only paid for parts you needed. Now you want someone who may have no qualifications, and no opportunity to even see the vehicle, to troubleshoot your unresolved problem. LOL
