Re: SVX can't climb hills

Another possibility that I haven't seen mentioned is clogged cats, they will start showing under a load like a steep hill....if they are the culprit, they will probably be glowing red at the point the the car dies....REALLY easy to determine in the dark....

Just something else to think about.....
