93 escort 1.9L MT hatchback will be slow to accelerate from the stop position. If to much pressure is applied to the accelerator the engine will just rev up as if I am in neutral. This condition happens in all 5 gears. thank you for your help.

Any chance this is a manual transmission? Sounds like a slipping clutch.
If an automatic, check your fluid level... have it flushed and refilled if it has been a long time.
