Very strangely... 700 90

Since I bought 740 Turbo 90' model last May in Chicago, it has been nightmare.

I had to replace tires, fuel pump, muffler, turbo, battery and front break system. (Now almost bankcrupt and afraid to go to bodyshop anymore. )

I still have one severe problem that autoshop couldn't find. Sometimes the car is not accelarated. The tacometer goes on and falls down repeatedly and the car fluctuates.

Very strangely, whenever I turn off and start the engine again, the problem is solved and the car is accelarated. The autoshop says it can be electrical problem, but it seems that they can not find the reason. This strange symptom makes me uneasy predicting it won't be cured someday just by starting a car again.

Do you have any idea or clue or just rough guess ?

Sincerely,

Chezin

Wondering if I have to sell the car sacrificing all the investment I had made on.
