Mid 90's Ford Escort Wagon

Engine vibrates badly under load or on hills. Severe reduction in acceleration. Also knocks loudly on hills with speed reduced to 15-25 mph.

Replaced plugs and wires, reduced problem slightly but still there. Old plugs slightly carbon fouled but not badly.

What's my problem?

What's my problem?

Ok, I can't get this song out of my head, the problem is I don't know the lyrics to it nor do I know who performed it or even the song title. But I've seen people in here who are very good at deciphering "dum de dah dum" into the actual song, so here goes. It's a hard rock kind of song that was popular around 95-96 i think. I can only remember the guitar riff that seemed to be constant throughout the song... So here goes...

Dowww / Dah \ Dow / Dah \ Dow / Dah -Dah

Dowww / Dah \ Dow / Dah \ Dow / Dah -Dah

Dowww / Dah \ Dow / Dah \ Dow / Dah -Dah

Dat - Dat - Dat - Dah (Start again)

Ok, This was played on one of the lower strings of a lead guitar. When you sing the long "Dowww" you fade down an octave then go up an octave for the following "Dah" and then alternate up and down to the end of the line. The / means go up an octave & the \ means go down an octave. After this riff is played a few times the singer comes in & starts singing the song following the same pitch as the guitar

Sometimes when I first startup IE and go to Google for a web search, after clicking "submit" or hitting "enter" It pops up a german version of the Google results. If I go back and re-click it shows up in english. I've noticed that this seems to only happen in a new explorer window and on the first search at Google. IT getsd to be somewhat annoying at times. Any suggestions? Is it on my end or Google's end that the problem exists? I'm suspecting my browser is giving Google erroneous info making it think I'm German, but why does it only happen once?

Let's say the we live in a universe where faster than light speed is possible ala Star Trek/Star Wars... If a ship such as the Enterprise/Millenium Falcon suddenly hit warp speed from a stationary position would not the ship simply "blink out" instead of the cinematic dramatic "explosion" into hyperspace? By that I mean the ship would depart leaving only an afterimage of itself for a few milliseconds because of light reflection? No big flash of light, just "blink" GONE!
