Car: 1989 Pontiac Firebird Formula Engine: 5.0 TPI Transmission: Automatic 700r4 Axle/Gears: 2:73? | new 1989 5.0 tpi owner, need some advice!!
| just purchased a 1989 firebird formula 5.0 tpi, automatic. Car has not been driven very much to not all the past 2 years by the previous owner, seems to run a a little rough, i know it needs a tune up, plugs and wires and injection cleaning, but the passenger side plugs look to be almost impossible to change (the back 2) any suggestions or tricks out there? also the automatic 700r4 trans seems to be too tall of a gear and the previous owner told me that you needed to put car in 2nd and manaully shift it, this helps but still seems odd to me. anu suggestions also about the tpi system, as to if its junk or just needs to be cleaned out regularly, thanks to any help you can give me out there,,,,,,,,steve | | | |
