Lack of Power on Hills, 2000 Quest

QuestMike's picture

I have a 2000 Quest that is losing power up hills to the point I can't even stay at the speed limit going up a hill on a freeway. I've replaced the spark plugs, the fuel filter, the cap & rotor, and the air filter. None of that has helped. Anyone have any idea what the problem is?
