89 V6 4Runner is slow.

89 V6 4Runner is slow.
I have an 1989 4Runner V6 that is just SLOW!
I am wondering why this is, as compression is good on all cylinders (~140 psi)
Towing a 2200 lb. trailer felt the same as towing nothing, but it's acceleration is slow. My 89 V6 pickup was nowhere near this slow, so it's not just because it's the V6.
Any ideas?

Compression
wonderwagon - according to my haynes manual, for the v6 engine, 3vze your compression should be as follows:
###########################
Compression pressure at 300rpm
Standard 171psi
Minimum 142psi
Max difference between cylinders 14psi
###########################
hope this helps.
