BHG Symptoms, troubleshooting ??

Paul_NJ · 08-13-2011, 03:51 AM

'87 Turbo 140K miles. Aw geez what next? . . . driving today and suddenly lost power in 1 and 2 gear, shaking on acceleration. When I stopped I could smell sweet burning smell. Was told there was white smoke coming thru exhaust, 10 minutes after I shut it off. Just replaced the timing belt last year, and I hate to go thru that again. Can someone give me a good troubleshooting procedure to determine if I have a BHG? Good winter project I suppose . . . can't imagine what it would cost to shop out. Any suggestions?

Thanks
