Engine Trouble, need help!


I have a 88 GTA 350 TPI. I recentlly noticed a problem though. My car just started loosing power at around 3000-3500 rpms. It will pull nice up to about that rpm range and then the engine keeps going but the car stops pulling. I was wondering why am i loosing power so low in my rpm's. This never used to happen before. It used to pull all the way up until about redline. PLEASE HELP me. I almost lost a talon the other day because of this.
Thankyou
Jason

have you checked anything? the basic tune up stuff? i'd look for clogged air, fuel filter or converter. check fuel presure and volumn? any codes set?
