i have a 91 talon with the 4g63 and a 20g turbo and i cant figure out why my check engine light will pop on then shut off when i push on the gas pedal about like 10% throttle. anyone know why this would happen?
 
I had the same problem, only mine disappeared at a higher throttle position. It turned out to be a bad tps, like steve is saying, so I replaced it and I get no more CEL's. Car also stuttered a lot before.

^^^but like said above, get some diagnostic codes from your ecu, it will really help pinpoint the problem.
