91 Acura idles fine but accelerate extremely slow

[Redacura91]

I have a 1991 Acura integra Ls that i just bought. It ran fine for two days then all of a sudden i started to feel low power when i press the gas pedal and very slow acceleration, even when flooring it. It seems like when i put the throttle body cleaner in the intake manifold it runs fine and accelerate like it suppose to. But when after a minute later, the same problem would happen again. Anybody can tell me what the problem could be?! please. thanks

Do a tune up

Knowing you just bought the car i would do what Axis said. You never know how long the car could be sitting for. When you said you feel low power when you press the gas pedal im thinking of your plugs. Your not getting all the power you should be. A good tune up would do you good.

...take the floor mat out from under the gas pedal....
Seriously though, try a tune up and see where that gets you.

read the plugs, see if theyre bad, or if the motor isnt getting any gas. do a tune up also
