I have always flushed the cooling system of every thing I drive at 60,000 to 75,000 miles.

I did this car at 69,000.

Also, I'm a believer in automatic transmission fluid and filter changes every 50,000.


You might consider a Steering Stabilizer ($25-$30 and 1/ hour of your time) every so often (I do mine annually before the Dragon - ok, sometimes twice a year). They go slowly and soon, you don't know WHAT is wrong, but you know the car just doesn't feel right.


ALSO, DO THE STICKY IGNITION MODIFICATION NOW. I'm warning you, mine locked up about 6 weeks after I drove it home at a gas station.... messed up my Saturday and cost me $90 to have it towed home!
