I just got this 87 GN in November with 39K original miles. Only driven a few times and now something is wrong with it. I'm not an idiot, but I'm not much of a mechanic (and this is the first TR I've driven). It appears that the turbo might be screwed up. Driving down the road, went to pass, and nothing happened...Turbo didn't spool up and the engine acted like it was about to die. Check engine light comes on, and it continues to run, but you have to ease in to the gas just to keep the engine going. If you punch it, it just stalls, and does nothing. Barely idling now. I doubt I have the time or patience to tackle the problem myself, but I want a great running car. I figure that Mr. Goodwrench would rape me on parts and labor. Anyone know a good mechanic in southern TN (Winchester/ Tullahoma area) or have any advice? Thanks.
