Peak power is not far from 5000rpm on an x14xe.

So i doubt it will be pulling much past there anyway :)

IT's found under the car just behind the drivers side, (don't quote me could be passangers side) it's about the size of a can of bean, abotu 7-12 for a new one, if that's blocked the you'll find the engie won't get the fuel

when i boot it and the revs get to about just above 5thousand is goes really flat and struggles to pull through the rest of the revs, this dosen't always happen though it can be fine, seems to do it after i have been giving it some for a while. its decatted as well.
any help please
