A lack of power A 1.4 Chevette is lacking power when new nothing to see ? just some thing not there still starts quick, no miss, or dead spot, new plugs, and the carburetor is 5,000 miles old ……. surprise the EGR was bad and exhaust gas recirculating was always open cheep fix and simple . so if your 30 year old engine is sluggish and you feel it but,,, look at that,, simple 2 bolts in / out at any junk yard, removeing the filter is harder.
