i am about to get rid of the mustang, but anyhow it feels much more responsive than my firebird. it does have about 40,000 less miles, but still! should i repl the plugs/wires? i plan on bringing it in to a pontiac shop, i have a warrany, because it does make alot of rattling sounds when i shift/coast on the highway. help!

a full tune up would bring back the life in your car. Also try one of those engine restore things you put in your gas.White 98 Camaro with t-tops leather and Y87. For more info on mods just ask.<br />1/4=14.9<br />2002 Xterra V6 A4 -

Some vehicles are just mean from the factory, the stang has about 10 hp less but it is lighter, i would think the bird would still take it in a race but it should be close.

did you say your transmission rattles when you shift? Mine does that also and my mechanic said that its my throw-out bearing gone south.

I wouldn't advise using any of that engine cleaner fuel additive gung. Alot of times on our fuel injected cars it is more trouble than it is worth. Usually plugs up injectors worse.
Think about it. If that stuff so cheaply could fix stuff like cloged up injectors no one would ever have to buy new ones. he he.
Best thing is to replace injectors, new high flow fuel filter, new plugs, and new plug wires. Try that out for a slight tune up first.Thanks, <br />JAM<p>02 Firebird GTComment

Hahahahaha, ya'll got the T-5 that was manufactured in Mexico! lol, they suck *** . 93-97 T-5's and T-56's were the good one's that are considered "world class" 98+ were kinda cheap.

Just cause something breaks doesn't mean it isn't good. All cars are mechanical new and old, and any one of them could have something break.
I think compared to how often other makes of cars have things break... GM had a good track record for realiabilty, items seem to break alot less.Thanks, <br />JAM<p>02 Firebird GTComment
