Bogging Down

My 305 tbi w/ 149k will not run WOT. I changed the fuel pump about six mths. ago and today I changed the dist.cap,rotor button, plugs,plug wires,fuel filter,PVC valve,air filter,breather filter w/ NO effect.When driving around town it runs good but when I increase the speed say like gettung on the freeway it falls flat on it's ***.The is all original stock. Could it be the injectors or the cat. Thanks

Hesitation on throttle tip-in and WOT is frequently a symptom of lean fuel mixture. Low pressure, filter restriction, and dirty injectors could be a cause.

thanks for the reply vader I was beginning to think no one cares. I to thought it had something to do w/ the fuel.The fuel pump was replaced 6 mths. ago,fuel filter about three yrs. when i removed the breather I noticed fuel up on top of 1 of the injectors what would cause this,also when driving below 50 or so the car runs fine but when I open up the throttle it kicks into low drive and loses speed.
