My Hiace 2RZ has very poor acceleration and low power. starts okay and sounds okay, but very slow to pull away and throttle only seems to work on ten to twenty percent opening, the rest makes no difference. thanks

we do not have that model in US, but scan for codes and check fuel pressure with a gauge start there. also, check for a vacuum leak.

Hi CHRISTOPHER,

If you decide you would like to conduct the scan yourself here is a link to an article that features written step by step instructions and pictures explaining how to do the scan yourself, also I have included a link to our YouTube channel with a how to video on code scanning.

This is applicable even if your check engine light is not on.

Most scanners are inexpensive to purchase, you can purchase one online from sites like Amazon.com

Once you have the codes please get back to us so that we can further assist you. We are always happy to help.

Thank you for visiting 2CarPros.com.

Kindest regards,

Renee
