RPMS go up REALLY slow.....

Ok so I replaced my clutch last week, and then I had a starter prob witch I fixed today. The car now starts and stays runing, but when I rev it up it takes awhile for the rpms to get up there. I *** with it more tomorrow and see what I get. The car has no exhast on it right now and its last so I just did a quick test.

I was about to say the same exact thing.
Back when I had a mariah widebody '83 that had a 12A in it, it revved the exact same way when I first got it. After I checked it for the first time, I discovered that the idiot that I bought it off of had the coil wires switched. The leading coil was running the trailing, and the trailing coil was running the leading. Neeedless to say, it ran like complete ****, but it still managed to run and idle. Of course, this was before I fixed it. I still kinda miss that car, but it had 190,000 on the chassis and I was able to trade it a year later for a '91 in excellent condition that was red with black leather interior
