Default Corolla; engine stumbles and wont rev up on anything over ~20% throttle

94 1.6L 'rolla

checked cap/rotor/plugs/wires

If cold it runs like a charm, when it warms up funny things start happening.

not sure what else i should check. This is my DD so its a pain in the butt.

My civic ran like that when the o2 sensor went bad. It ran fine cold but once it got up to temp it ran like *** and wouldn't go above 4k rpm.

Does it run better with the MAF unplugged?

Yours is a flapper type. IF his is hotwire, it will run unplugged. If it runs better, its the MAF for sure. Cant remember when they changed over on the 7a-fe.

Corollas are notorious for hotwire MAF failures. A new one is like $250.

EDIT: Nevermind his car is spilt year still a 4a-fe.
