Hello again everyone,
My 98 Mark VIII is sick and I need some help.
A week ago, I was driving on the freeway and my car became sluggish. When I would step on the gas, nothing would happen(no acceleration), and I would get a bit of clunking in the back of the car. When I shut the car down, everything was OK for a short period of time, and then the symptom came back.
A week later, the car drives OK when I drive like an old man, but if I try to get on it a little bit, The RPMs will shoot up to 2 and then nothing will happen(no acceleration). I have not stalled once in the car, but there is just no power when I floor it.
I wont break down, but it takes quite a bit of time to get up to 70 for the freeway.
Please let me know what you guys think the problem is(I spoke with a friend who thought that it was either the fuel pump or the cats(yikes).
I am going to Europe next week, so I am not swimming in money
Is there any affordable cats to put on this car? 1500 and 1200 is TOO MUCH!!!!
Thanks again everyone,
Fred
