just did some basic maintanance :)
Well to start off, i did an oil change (10w30 Castrol syntec), i put in a new thermostat and i adjusted my idle to 1000rpms.
When i first popped open my hood i saw the most weirdest and scariest things. the 3rd cylinder spark plug wire was completely hangin loose. This could explain why my car was getting shitty gas mileage, exhaust started to sound crappy and performance sucked. It took about 30 min to do everything i went to drive the car aroudn and dam it drives a whole lot better. just wanted to let you people know

no way nology. you drove your car on 3 cylinders and you never even noticed it ? damn you guys need to get more intuned with your car, it should be like an extension of your body. when i am driving my car, if i hear one wrong sound or anything out of the ordinary, i go home and take the car apart and fix it.
