    I own a 1995 355 Spider. I was driving home from Seattle last night and when I went around a corner the engine suddenly lost power. After turning the car off and on a few times (still no help) I limped the car home 20 miles or so but struggled at every hill and stop sign. This morning I drove the car to town ( no issues) but in town when I started it up again I had the same problem. It's like I've lost all power on 1 bank. I have not had a "slow down" or "check engine" light come on. Any ideas what I should check for?

    Bad ECU, very common. Try swapping from side to side, see if the other side is afflicted. But it should light up your "Slow down" light. Hmmm....

    Sounds like a bad coil unit.
