Power Loss
I'm working on buying a '90 N/A, but there are a few quarks ..
One of which, I can't figure out ..
After driving around for a while, I will experience a power loss .. anything above 3000-4000 RPM doesn't really give any power at all, and sometimes it won't go above 3000 RPM .. occasionally the check engine light comes back on .. but if I turn the car off and start it again the problem goes away .. even if I turn it off and back on in motion .. 3 seconds of 0 RPM solves it and it won't happen again for hours..
Other then this, the engine runs very smoothly. It has a steady idle, no smoke, ect.
Does anybody have any idea as to what might be causing it?
As far as mods, I don't think there are any. I know it has an after-market CAT, but I don't believe there is much else that isn't stock.
