Ok HELP..........

My son's new car, donated by his aunt (after 5 years of sitting around) is running, but only after a new fuel pump and flushing the lines.

It idles very sporadically and rough, has very slow throttle response and will only hit 4,000rpm.......not a smidge more. It acts like it has a rev limiter on it at 4,000.... Hints anybody

Youve replaced the fuel pump , but have yu replaced the fuel filter? Also check the air ducting going to the AFM(air flow meter) and to the intake manifold. Any air leakage will cause problems. Any other symptoms?
