shift to lower gear
most cars will slow down b/c it takes more power to go up hill in a higher gear. just drop down to lower gear and then you'll go just fine

Default Re: is it my clutch? (ludemasta)

my lude did the exact same thing- it was my distributor. my rpms were dropping below one and then id go back up, and id turn it back on, and itd stay on..but id start loosing power and then id would die. i had to get all of it replaced. and now it runs even better!
