Whens the last time you did a good tune up ........Plugs , wires , fuel filter , air filter, run some inj cleaner for a couple of tanks. Check timing if able.

Im not just being stupid, seriously his car was sluggish and all we had to do was change the oil and replace the other car fluids and his car worked great afterward.
