My first time posting. I own a 1995 LSC. Bought the car used 4 months ago 162K miles clean, and did not know I have a LSC (no badges) until last week when I found the original owners manual under the seat in a leather like case with a chrome Lincoln Pen and a warranty card that says my car is an LSC. Cool!!
When I bought the car, it was plenty fast, but had a slight miss and vibration. I would still beat cars off the line and down the road. Over the weeks, the miss and vibration got worse until it was unbearable to drive the car. I found this forum and read about many different reasons for the miss/vibration. So I decided to change the plugs and wires today. Now the car is really fast and the engine is smooth.
Today, I was challenged by a guy with a Chrysler 300 R/T. I turned off the trac control and turned off the OD and waited for the traffic light (the street was clear of traffic and pedestrians).
Off the line, my car smoked the rear wheels, went sideways a few feet, got traction and the 300 never caught up. The guy wanted to try again and the same result. He never had a chance. Afterwards, he asked what mods I did to the car. I told him none. He was mad and called me a liar.
Later in the day, a guy with a 95 Z28 wanted to try me too and I told him no. He wanted to know what was faster. I agreed and same thing happend. Smoked my tires and the Z28. Geez, I smoked my tires! Drag racing stuff!
My car never broke a sweat in 102 degree heat today. I am impressed.
I love this car. I REALLY love my car.
So, change you wires and plugs on a regular interval and inspect in between.
By the way, the plugs I put in are Bosch 2s. Couldn't find Motorcraft or Autolites in my immediate area. Dealers wanted $220 for the wires and $30 for a set of Motorcraft plugs. I went to Autozone and got the Bosch 2s for $32 and the wires for $89.99 with a warranty.
