Engine Performance problem
1992 Opel Vectra 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual

My Vectra loses acceleration both on the highway (above 90km/hr) and even during town ride. During acceleration loss, the engine does not go off but you hit the accelerator pedal and nothing happens. When it happened the last time (Saturday), I had to spray some petrol into the carburator before it was ok after several attempts to start the car. I've changed fuel pump fuel filter (original from germany) but, still no difference. I've serviced the carburator several times.
Any help pls?

check fuel pressure ! check or replace the spark plugs and leads and check you are getting a good spark from distributor !!
