Re: RPM's Drop while driving

haven't checked all that yet...fluid level checked good and clear I would guess...not black are real dark....no smell from what I can remember...i have had the car a year and never replaced the trans filter and the guy I got it from at it 6months and never did change it...the fuel pump and fuel injectors and filter are about a year old alil longer maybe...i have changed the egr valve,fuel pressure reg,ICA,TPS, and spark plugs,plug wires...when I replaced the egr I broke the wire that goes to the solenid...what about MAF systoms...
