The car starts fine- but getting it to move, especially from a full stop is very difficult. Struggles to accellerate, can only get it up to about 55mph- When driving on completely flat road, it feels like I'm driving uphill with the emergency break on. When I press on the gas, the engine doesn't race...

What could the problem be?

Haha, this car has long been sold, but thanks! It actually had ended up needing a new fuel pump, though.
