Power loss and sputter

[shotyme92]

Car is acting weird..... Start up in the morning and runs fine. 10 miles down the road still running fine until I go to accel hard to get onto the interstate then it just stops accel at around 4k rpms and starts to miss.... so i pushed in the clutch and shut it off (rolling) and waited a couple seconds and fired it back up and all power is restored. runs fine till I exit and go to merge into traffic then again with the powerloss. Check engine light does not come on. ANY ideas?

weird no code,usually when a cps or cam sensor is toast they throw codes,did it buck n hesitate ? my 90 did the same thing and it was the cps thin it was a code 24, think it is a code 211 or 214 on 2nd gen not sure, also clean your MAF sensor see if that helps.wheres hawkeye or mr anonamous when ya need em LOL

I think I found my problem. Just had a weird feeling to check this cause i had it happen on old gtz beretta. got home tonight popped the hood and fired it up and under the hood reving it up i could see the spark plug wires arching to the engine. so now i guess its time to try and find the grounding issue or replace some plug wires and I know thats not any fun from previous SHO. Anybody have an idea on ground issue cause i cant find one.

Is there water in the Plug wells?

I had this same issue with my SHO. There was a ton of water in the wells on the rear bank. That might not be your issue but it's worth checking in to.

No water in plug wells. Plug wires were all clean and dry when removed.....
