Strange squeeling noise and sluggish performance?
I just had the plugs replaced, atf treatment and fuel filter replaced. When accelerating moderately everythings fine, but, when accelerating hard I get a squeeling noise coming from the driver's side of the engine. Also, on the highway, with revs above 2000 it seems sluggish if I ask it to accelerate a bit more. Would it be normal for it to be a bit sluggish after an atf treatment until I go through one tank of gas? And what should I be looking at as the possible source of the squeeling noise? Its an automatic 94 touring if that makes a difference. Engine is original with 63K miles and everything on it is stock I know it will need to be rebuilt in the next year but I'm trying to buy it a little time until I can save up the cash. Next on my list of mods is a downpipe which I'm guessing will help take some stress off of the engine. I welcome comments from those with a lot of experience with the 3rd gen FD as I am learning as I go. Thanks in advance. Oh, I forgot to add that the idle was adjusted as well. It was idling low, shaking some when stopped, and occasionally would stall out when in reverse, but only when in reverse.
