94 3000gt 5 speed . Has no power when I take off . I can't give it much gas . If I slowly give it a little gas I can get it to about 40mph . if I mash it doesn't do anything and tries to die but doesn't ?

Clutch is slipping.

Does it down shift appropriately when accelerating? Normally when you stomp on the gas while in a high gear (travelling at 40mph), the transmission will downshift to a lower gear giving the car much more torque. This can cause the car to jolt or jerk forward and accelerate suddenly.



If this is way off base and you\'re experiencing something else, please let me know

Oxygen sensor?

what about the fuel pump.

a bad or clogged injector can give a misfire code.

needs a new clutch thats at all not a difficult job for a skilled man but this job is not within the realms of a DIY job

replace the speed sensor its in the tranny
hanyes makes a good manual


if it helps please give me thumbs up

i should have the engine pressure tested see if you have low pressure on one or more cylinders fuel pressure sounds very high

it sounds like a stun gun?? you are losing spark, get it in a dark place or at night and look under the hood for the lost spark, spray water on the cap and wires, youll find it

Obviously have to take a close look at pulley conditions & alignment, as well as tensioner. While the belt is off, check each pulley by trying to spin it for excessive resistance, and or movement, side to side, up & down, feel for grinding like indication bad/dry bearing. Try applying a little force in direction that belt would when it's on, as you rotate pulley, as it may only show or feel it when force applied. Remember, when you accelerate, crankshaft pulls harder on that belt & if tensioner isn't keeping proper tension on at all times due to partially seized or weak, it will allow belt to loosen up & bounce on opposite side from pulling.
