I just got my first honda. It has 320k miles on it. I noticed that while cursing at 70 miles per hour the car will all of a sudden get a small boost in power. The RPMs will go up about 100rpm, and will want to accelerate about 1-2 mph faster. This is without me adding any pressure to the gas petal. After a few seconds it will go back to 70mph. Any ideas?

This was before I tuned it up.

I just put in a new air filter, plugs, wires, cap and rotor. However the car still does this. It also is very hesitant at low speeds. Almost like it wants to die (not sputtering or spitting, just a solid loss of power) This only lasts about a second and then accelerates normally.

Car only gets 35mpg. I thought it was supposed to get 47 plus mpg

Any info would be helpful.

Thanks!
