no acceleration power 200 1982

Hi

I just purchased a fuel injected 240 DL wagon with an AT. It needs a lot of work, but the first thing I want to tackle is performance. When pulling out from a stop it crawls at 5mph. But, if you can keep the gas to the floor, it will get to about 20 mph then have normal power until you slow down below maybe 20mph. I plan to give it a good tune-up and add some fuel injection cleaner to the tank, but i would like to know if these symptoms sound like anything specific?
Thanks

ps - haven't had a chance to take a picture yet
