Hi,

I have a couple of concerns with my Stang:

1. When i start my car sometimes after work (8hrs) my car hesitates to start, almost like it is choking. It doesn't do this all the time. It almost seems like it bogs down too, for about 5 seconds and it idles normally. I tried resetting the idle by disconnecting the battery for 30min and unplugging the IACV.

2. The oil pressure gauges keeps going up and down when driving

3. There's a leak under my car, and it look moist where the tranny meets the driveshaft

4. The power steering whines all the time (I think this is normal??) The reservoir is at full capacity.

5. Tranny shifts very late from 2-3 and 3-4

6. Engines taps very loud when going up a hill.

7. When idling, the car drones (not exhaust) sounds like a dead battery and the engine sounds like it is straining (Tested battery and its good)

8. Engine pulley squeaks when idling cold

9. Car body squeaks in rear passenger side when braking or going over bumps.


Any and all help is greatly appreciated!!
