Ok i have a all stock 1987 dodge colt its got over 200k miles on it. It starts and runs fine just has no power at all and it just did it all at once so do i need a new motor or what could be the problem? It dont smoke or burn oil at all, has new plugs and wires, all that it just acts like it lose a cylinder so im kinda at a loss right now.

Once again I'll offer what most likely will be useless advice. Dead cat maybe? You wouldn't notice the issue till RPM's start to build while there's a load on the motor. Other than that I have no real knowledge on the 1.5L motors.

When the ecu on my old 92 GSX was on its way out my car was very sluggish.
