Alright celica owners, it seems like my 95 celica Gt is having trouble picking up speed once it reaches around 80mph, plus, around that point, there's is a slight burning smell, i don't know what it is. i think something might be burning inside my engine...maybe clutch??....but i just replaced it in march 2005. On the freeway, going from 60 mph to 80mph on fifth gear is alright but once after it reaches past 80, the car doesn't pull as strong. is there a limit for the celica MPH?...i know the car can go higher like 90 or 100, but my celica seems to be having trouble going to those speed. Any help celica owners?....can there be something wrong in my engine?? Thanks -jAzn95GT

I saw your car yesterday... on hwy 99. Heheh...
Can't say exactly what your problem is. There are a number of small things that can cause hesitation at higher speeds, clogged cat, bad ignitor, timing, etc. I'd start out checking the basics, and then go from there. Do understand that these cars don't pull that hard on the top-end... -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"
