That was not it!!!

still did not have power, especialy when i needed to overtake a truck
hesitates to pull away, frustrating.

I striped off the airbox and vacuum pipes, sucked and blew on every pipe.

I found that the vaccum pipe between the firetrap and the vacuum tree was completely blocked.

so I cleaned it, and removed the firetrap filter.( this was basicaly blocked too)
I also just slightly cleanded the inside of the distributer cap and roter.

hoever i ma the mistake of cleaning the MAF with a earbud, and just apllied too much pressure (I BROKE IT)

so now i have to buy one.

strange thing is on my way to work it sometimes struglle to idle (BROKEN MAF) but i sure had power, (Rainy whether- and had wheelspin in second- not bad for an automatic)

will give an update as soon as i gen my new MAF installed
