Unhappy engine has no power (photos)

OK, my only purpose on this board may be to make others feel better about their cars (for now). Hopefully someday, I will be able to be on the giving side of the advice.

Once again I have a problem. (suprise, suprise)

I took my car out for the first time today, but the engine had almost no power. Trying to go up hill, made the engine slow then die. rpms go up when I use the accelerator, but there little to no power once it's under load. I am about at the end of my witts. I wonder if it might be the same problem that was keeping it from running on all 4 cylinders the other day. I have checked, double checked, triple checked wiring, and it all seems to be fine (from the looks of it) Has anyone had a similar problem? By the way...I had to use a little carb cleaner to get her idling today. Thanks.

Brian
