Exclamation having trouble picking up speed, wont speed up?

when I go to excelarate, I get up to around 30mph, and it doesnt really want to go any faster. I can hold it to the floor, but it wont pick up speed hardly. eventually it will go, and then it seems to excellarate just fine once it is up around 55-60mph. I didnt know if it was some kind of fuel problem or not, if anyone know whats going on let me know thanks!

Does it seem to lug between 30-55 mph or does it rev up just fine but no power at the rear?

Could be a bad injection pump or injector, or the tranny could be going out since it does good till about 30 mph then not so good till 50 mph.
