Broken or disconnected accelerator cable?
Plugged fuel or air filter?
Plugged catalytic converter?
Ignition timing?
need to replace the coil thing, cost about £40
sounds like the catalytic converter.
There may be something wrong with the accelerator. It might be time to get the vehicle checked out to ensure nothing is wrong.
A car goes faster when you accelerate. It slows down when you brake.
I don't have a car.
Joe felt the car accelerate very quickly.The car's acceleration was impressive.
After you engage a gear and let out the clutch and accelerate the car wont move faster but the RPM's will move up. Also in some rare instances when a clutch disk material separates from the disk its self you wont be able to start the car or even change gears.
When a car turns a corner.
Your car should not smoke when I accelerate. Maybe it caught fire because you dropped a cigarette. If my car smokes when I accelerate, it's because the piston rings are loose and oil is getting into the combustion chamber.
Honestly ,to me if it wont start, then it is a power problem! because of Pontiac's alternators and being that the car is almost 10 yrs old you should have that checked!!
Inertia.
It goes faster
