My car is losing power when running?

When I'm driving my car loses strength when it starts, the car has to be a failure in the engine, and want to turn off. Someone said it was the gasoline that was bad, and to put fuel injector. I put fuel injector and took force. but again having the same problem, this time has injector fuel and gasoline more expensive and follows the same ruling power loss. Can anyone tell me what are the things that make the car lose power?

Weak battery, weak alternator, bad ignition switch, loose connections on battery or even distributor and coil.
Hope this helps.

I have a Mazda MPV 2003, i bought from japan, 7 months ago, this van was running well until two days ago, it stsrts and cut off, starts again and while driving it is losing power then it will speed up

Before any diagnostics, I would run a tank of gas with a bottle of fuel dryer and injector cleaner to ensure that the engine racing isn't resulting from moisture and clogged injectors.

The Drive light flashes and the car loses power and sometimes won't start

D light flashing means that there is something wrong with the automatic transmission, have the vehicle scanned to understand the origin of the failure. Car losing power is consistent with a transmission that fails to change to lower gears, but has nothing to do with failure to start, that i can think of. Remember that 1998/2002 Accord auto transmissions are notoriously weak, and rarely reach 80000 miles.
