I think it's something like that. The end of the crankshaft has worn.

The car suffered a worn camshaft causing the cambelt to move around. The parts that fit into the camshaft were replaced so it now idles properly, but when you put your foot down and expect a surge of power, instead it revs up without gaining speed until something clicks then your off again.
