hey guys i just recently purchased a 89 240sx and it was runnin pretty bad when i got it. the car needed spark plugs and new wires. i gave it an oil change and it passed smog with no problem. but there is one issue with the car and that is when i give the car full throttle it instantly loses power. It mostly happens when im crusing in 4th and 5th gears. When i take it out of gear and put it back into gear i get throttle control back. my friend told me it might be a fuel cut of some sort...hes having the same trouble. does anyone know whatthis is or how to fix it. I did a search but it wont work...help?
