as the title says my 2.9 in my 88 B2 loses power significantly when warm, not nessesarily the water temp because it doesnt have a "set" spot where it loses but moreso the ambient temp outside, power loss isnt so much apparent at night when its cool, but definitly during the hot days.... doesnt become harder to start or spudder or anything like that... just feels like its very bogged down, sounds that way too, i have an intake and exhaust system so its easy to hear it too. On top of that my fuel mileage sucks, i feel the two problems probably have something to do with eachother. it has new ignition parts including tfi mod, the extreme that i fear it may be is a clogged cat(s). Any other ideas?
