Loss of Power , will not go above 2000 rpm

[acerf11]

When i first start the car in the morning the car will not go over 2000rpm but if you leave it running for a while(1/2 - 1 min) its runs fine 1, i have replaced the maf and it still the same.
It shudders some times and other times its fine. It seems to have a lack of power in the lower gear especially 1st.

I noticed that the fog light passenger side has water standing in which is right next to the air intake , do you think moisture could have anything to with the problem of not going over 2000rpm or
could it be and EGR Problem?

Thanks

im having a simalar problem with mine atm,

when you first start it, you carnt Rev it

switch ign off and back on and fire it up its fine all day,

Cleaned Egr, and it was fine for awhile, now its back too its old tricks,


Might be worth a try at cleaning the Egr, iused Wyns egr cleaner,

i would start by disabling the egr valve by blocking the thing this an old piece of drinks can and seeing what that does if it fixes it then leave the piece of can in place

I just noticed there are air bubbles in the clear pipe and the priming bulb is soft not matter how many times i pump it the bubbles keep on coming , it makes a hissing sound when i press the priming bulb?
seems to me its sucking back toward the priming bulb? could this be problem?

would this cause the loss of power in the morning and and also the shuddering when driving around?

p.s i reved it this morning and was loud poping sound once , sound like pipe poping.

you have a fuel leak if there is air in the system, get sum one to pump the hand primer and you have a look at all the fuel lines
