1994 Ford Escort LX - NEED HELP
Hello, it's my first time here, and i'm in great need of your help. I recently bought a used 1994 Ford Escort LX, i had some work done on it, i changed the spark plugs, the oil, air filter, the motor mounts ( these were changed because the car was vibrating heavily) there were some faulty looking tubes (going to the heater) that the mechanic said were have to be replaced soon in order for the heater to work again , but honestly i don't know their names. Now the problem is that a few days ago i hit a sink hole (hard) there was no noticeable damage at first and now the car is behaving weird, first it turns off whenever it wants, i have to move the cables on the battery for it to star again, now what's worse, as i'm driving it feels as if the car is going to turnoff if i don't accelerate making it extremely difficult to drive with my feet over the break and the gas and not to mention having to place the car on neutral while waiting on a light. I dont know if all this makes sense. But honestly i don't know where to begin looking. Some one told me i should check the transmission oil to make sure its ok ( i dont see how this would have anything to dowith the hit of the sink hole ) , but i dont know how to go about it, where do i find it and how do i change it?
