So I've also noticed that I have a pretty substantial loss of power when I'm at lower rpm's. And sometimes it is rough at idle. However, I just traveled 250 miles back from college and I averaged about 26ish mpgs..... Anyone have any suggestions on what it could be? On a side note, I did my lim ...

If it was the converter wouldn't that make the engine run bad at idle and other times? not just when i'm going down the highway?

And it actually is surging a slight amount. it's like it want to work right but it can't.

I'll just get right to it. Say i'm driving on the highway and I want to speed up a little. I press the gas a little but instead of the engine rpms going up like you would expect, it seems like it gets bogged down. Now I'd assume that at that point it would down shift and kick up the rpms but that ...

Does anyone have a specific tire recommendations? I really have no idea what to look for.

Ha that is the question isn't it. Since i'm in college right now and have student loans and all that, my money is minimal. My main goal is to get something practical. I don't need the best looking tire, just something that will work well and for a long time.

Okay sounds like I'm gonna go ahead and do everything on the list and fill it with the "mixes with any" coolant just in case. Another thing I forgot to mention earlier is that I also need new tires. I live in northwest Iowa and I need a tire that will last me through the winter and also be good for ...

Here is the list of things I want to get done over my thanksgiving break...

LIM Gaskets
Valve Cover Gaskets
180 degree thermostat
SC oil change
Coolant flush/switch to green(maybe)
Aluminum coolant elbows
Oil Change

I've spent the better part of the last month looking through this forum and ...

So here is a curve-ball for everyone. I went ahead and replaced the rest of the wires and took it for a drive. Oddly enough, it ran beautifully. Now here's the weird part. When I put the scan tool on it, it showed that the code was a misfire on cylinder 3 (p0303). When I replaced the wire for that ...

I got a set of wires from O'reillys and I only had time to change number 3. All I did was switch the wire out. It didn't help at all. Next move should be pulling that plug and checking the gap? Then if the gap is correct, where does that leave me?

I scanned it at O'reillys. The code is P0303 so a misfire in cylinder 3. I still don't understand what was causing the vibrations? and why it only vibrates while driving and doesn't vibrate while in park?

Only the plugs were changed. During the job he did pull two of the boots off of the wires and then had to re-crimp two new ends onto those two wires. I'd assume that would be the problem. Is it alright to drive with it like this or am i dead in the water?

I took my car to the shop today under suspicion of bad spark plugs. it had been sputtering at starts sometimes and would die occasionally. The mechanic said that the old plugs were okay still but since I had new ones there, we decided to just replace them all. He also replaced the fuel line. After ...

So my ssei bonne has been sputtering at the start and its been really rough at idle. i assume it is spark plugs so i got some ac delco replacements. i just ran it up onto ramps, popped the hood, and noticed white smoke coming from what looked like right above where the spark plugs are. i have no ...

So after 10 days I've noticed very little if any coolant loss. Everything has been running fine except yesterday while driving down the highway the engine randomly shut off. I pulled it off to the side and it started right back up so I really have no idea what that's all about or if it could even be ...

I realize that but what else can I do? I mean worse case scenario is I have to replace my lower intake gasket but I don't know that for sure unless there is coolant in the oil right?

I went to the mechanic and he told me to fill up the coolant again and see if my oil level rises (right now it's a quart low). If I'm burning the oil would it burn white and would it be visible out the tailpipes? My mechanic looked at my oil and said it looked fine thus far but told me to keep ...

Hey everyone. I've got two problems right now on my 2000 Bonneville. First problem is the A/C. I bought the car about a month ago and the A/C has blown cold up until about 2 days ago. I first noticed the warm air on my way home from work. At first the driver side air blew warm while the passenger ...
