85 Jaguar XJ6 moves, but low torque

My girlfriend and my mother bought me a Jag for Xmas and it drives good. I got it up to 105, but when I take off it has no power. It seems almost sluggish. When I floor it the RPM's will go up, but it doesn't move like it should. I've put new plugs, new tires, new fuel filter, new air filter and have changed the oil. I have used injector cleaner and complete fuel system cleaner. Any suggestions would be much appreciate. Thank you.

Make sure that the air flow meter is functioning properly. If it is starved of oxygen, it will not perform.

Also, replace coolant temperature sensor. It goes bad frequently.
