V-6 900SE Rough Idle / Miss and lack of power ?

Thanks for the responses!
Today, I replaced the air and fuel filters in hope of improving the rough idle and a lack of power when I step on the gas. These changes made no difference in performance and the idle remains rough. It almost feels like the car isn't getting gas when you step on it. The engine revs up at a rapid pace in Park, 1st or Drive; but the car isn't moving the way it did before. In fact it's sluggish. However, it does get a couple 1 second spirts of speed to match the tach and noise but bogs down between spirts unless I let off the gas and ease back on it. The tach does not flinch during this test. Could the car be in a higher gear and with a bad R/R switch and the engine rev like it is in a lower gear? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Eddie
