Re: Grand Prix GT (2000) loss of engine power

It sounds like a TCC solenoid going bad. When you step on the gas at that speed, the TCC should disengage the torque converter lock-up to allow the car to gain RPM. Without the converter unlocking, it's similar to trying to accelerate a stick shift car in 5th gear from 40mph without downshifting.
