sluggish acceleration on my 1996 tacoma

i need recommendations/suggestions on how i can fix my 1996 tacoma 2wd 2.4L 4cyl xcab. i just got it from my sister and all fluids were flushed, newly tuned up too. but the slow acceleration from complete stop is just so noticeable. help for suggestions to fix it. thanks.

 

Need more info -

Does the engine rev normally or excessively, but truck just won't speed up?
How many miles on it?
Is it automatic?
If so, was it sluggish before the flush?

Often, it's not a good idea to flush an automatic that has alot of miles, especially if the tranny fluid hasn't been changed in a long time, or ever!

it revs normal and when it gets going it’s ok.
its just from stop and when u like floor the gas pedal to overtake.

its automatic with 220K miles on it.
the new tranny fluid been done. so is there any other way fo fix it? it’s sluggish even before fluid change

 

First, your symptoms could be from low fluid level. But I'll assume you've checked the tranny-fluid. It sounds like the tranny is slipping. It needs to go to a tranny shop for diagnosis & repair, if you can find one in your area that's trustworthy. Otherwise, I'd consider a factory rebuilt tranny.

you got any codes? Check the cables where the theottle body is

 

Just what are you comparing it with another Tacoma with the exact same drive train?

Remove as much weight as possible!!

Forced induction or a Engine Swap?

Looking for a fast off the line vehicle it is not a 2.4 pick up.
