Please help...
At high rpm (above 3200) and under load ie on a long hill, engine will suddenly loose power. It will still climb, but in a lower gear and at a lower rpm. It "feels" as if something (perhaps a wategate?) has opened and boost is being dumped. The problem will reset when the motor is turned off and back on. It is also slugish and jumpy during acceleration in the lower gears. I'm told the turbo is gone, but that doesn't seem right since the problem resets. MAF is original with 265,000 k on it.
This one is baffling, after a warm-up period of 35-45 minutes, the headlights go out, the heater fan and the wipers quit, and the park brake light on the instrument panel illuminates dimly. Everything can be restored when the bright/dim wand is held all the way back in the intermittent position that allows both bright and dim lights to be on. This also goes away (but not permanently)with a restart.
Finally, the washer fluid does not make it to the windshield, the pump seems to be running but no fluid is ejected from the nozzles
