ive got a 94 gt thats got a few mods. its got an o/r x-pipe, flows, msd 6A, PP 65mm t/b, typoon upper and lower, 24lb injectors, c&l 76mm mass air, pullies, and a cai. im running a 5spd and 16 degrees of timing. i also added a 180 degree t-stat. anyhow back on subject. i live on the coast in nc and its started to get pretty hot outside. my temp gauge creeps up past the m in the normal gauge. the car will also die at stop lights after it warms up. when it gets hot and i get into the throttle ive also noticed a little spark knock. after i put the intake on i did a complete tuneup. new plugs at i believe .055 gap, new spiral core wires, cap and rotor. i also need to mention that the egr is currently off the car. the car had an auto when i got it and i swaped it out to a 5spd. i had 14 degrees of timing with the auto and it never sparked knocked last year. basically im just asking some advice about the car. the cutting off at stoplights and the over heating its quite annoying. somehow i think they are all related. any suggestions would be quite helpful
