Default Lost of Power

I have a '95 Discovery recently replaced Spark plugs and Distributor Cap and Rotor after a week I'm not getting the usual power under load I have to floor it but still lags. I dont' have any check engine on display and it doesn't shakes during idle, It runs fine when it's not moving I can rev up to 4k rpm. Please advice, Thanks

sounds like the vaccuum advance maybe check it with a vacuum tester if it holds it is good.also check your coil connections the spade connectors there corrode .they should be replaced with eyelets.also check the vacuum line going to the vac. advance.

Hello,
Thanks for the great advice, I solved the problem of my '95 LR, You are exactly right, I checked the Vaccum Advancer and sure enough it doesn't hold vaccum, I replaced it (wow!!! check out the price of this thing) and it runs as it should, once again thanks a million....
