Difficult engine start.Doesn,t accelarete when gas pushed.Goes to 100 km/Hour max speed

There are many variations of engine suspension tyres and road surface that willhave aneffect on max speed, even tyre presures can make a difference so no figure can be given. Sorry but can't be more specific

Check catalytic conv.

Hi,
Have you ever changed the fuel pump? seems to require this every 100 000km or so...

you developed a knock in the engine, sounds confusing but your engine computer can't separate bad bearing from pre-ignition, engine knock, to cure this your computer retards the spark, to the max to stop the knock, confuses the computer to the max

Not quite everything is fine.
Is the check engine light on ?
When you push on the gas pedal, does the engine speed change ?
Can you rev up the engine in park ?
What have you checked so far ?

TPS (Throttle posision sensor) would be my guess

takes a long time to run the rediness test since there are 6 different tests to complete...

Stopping and braking are permitted. (If stopped or drive at 56 km/h (35 mph) or less for more than 5 minutes the monitoring may be stopped. In this case please restart monitoring from the beginning.)
After completing the above deceleration, bring the vehicle speed back to 56 - 80 km/h (35 - 50 mph) and keep it in the range until starting the deceleration again.
Repeat the above deceleration at least 5 times.
Return the vehicle to the shop, then turn the ignition switch to "LOCK" (OFF) position

Change the Engine speed sensor. This can sometime cause your dash to do all sorts of weird things when they fail, such as setting the low fuel warning off as well. strange but true ! good luck

depends on your model and engine. mine does on empty motorway max. 150 km/h and on hill/slop upwards 120km/h. If you let reprogram your ecu for performance may be you'll gain more speed (google it for ecu reprogramming and you'll find more infos).

Fitting an overdrive auto or a 5speed manual transmission will give a little more top end ......or..... fit larger tyres. V8 should have enough torque to cope well at lower speeds.
