check engine came on -- problem accelerating
about 1-2 weeks ago my check engine came on for the first time and it jerked forward once, then it continued to drive fine, this happened 3 times over a 15 minute drive. a friend said this could have been a hickup and i thought it was until last night.
last night, my check engine came on again, and i couldnt boost at all, the more i stepped on the peddle the more it felt like i was towing 100,000 lbs.
i turned my car off and parked for about an hour, got back in, and the car ran just fine.
so i would love for some suggestions on what this could be. (1991 turbo swap)

sorry i havent responded yet, the holidays bring unpleasant business to my life to where i cant afford a obd1 scan at the moment..
on the other hand, since the incident, nothing has happened, possibly a hick-up?

ITS WHAT I DO!
Check wires on crankshaft position senser. I had a chafed wire and the engine started hiccuping the more gas I gave It the worse it got. Eventually the wire broke and engine would not turn over. That's when I found the problem.

This is a well documented problem-Pay attention!
You don't need and cannot get an OBD1 scan. Here is a link to tell you how to pull your own codes:

If you drive the car with any OMP codes(MOP), then you will burn up your ECU.
Ask me how I know.

Good luck.
