I remember when i bought my car I changed the spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor rotor, distributor cap, pcv valve, some hoses, air filter and tightened the throttle cable. The car bogged in 5th gear anything under 32mph. After I replaced all that I could put the car in 5th at 25mph with no problems. It's very hard to identify what the problem is so it's best just to do the maintenance on the car instead of just driving it till the problem arises.
