Unfortunately, thats true! She's off the market. It took $14.62 to fix her! Thanks a million Matt! (Aka. Immortal_suby) OK, Brake band adjustment worked wonders, and we found/fixed a few more issues along the way. Needless to say, its like a new car again. It turns out the (for the lack of a better term) the air box that attaches to the throttle body was isntalled improperly, and was not forming a good seal, thats where the lost power went. We also adjusted the brake band, and my shift flare is GONE. Shifts PERFECTLY. So, since we were there, we repalced/bled my brake fluid, tightened up the old throttle cable and replaced a gorund wire that was shorted/melted. Oh, we made sure all the wheels were torque properly as we found one that was WAY too tight and that caused the slight high speed wobble I had. Went ahead and replaced the air filter too. The only reason i was looking to sell it was because I was afraid that I couldnt afford to fix it, well... $14.62 later, shes all new again.
