440 1.8s Auto running problem
 
I have just aquired a 440, it has stood for about 6 months without moving.

It runs ok untill it reaches about 60mph. Then it dosent want to go any quicker and just lumbers. When i hit a hill no matter how much accelarator you use it just slows down to a crawl.

It is also uses a lot of petrol.

Can you lot give me some ideas.
Thanks
