My car is acting very strange. It is a 88 manual 245 with 200,000 miles. Heres the symptoms, it is not idling nicely at all, when I take my foot off the gas it almost stalls before gaining rpm's, sometimes it does stall. My already loud tail pipe is a lot louder and it makes this pop pop bang bang sound when I down shift to slow down. The power has decreased quite a bit and gas mileage has gone to pot, I don't even want to do the math but its bad. The car has always run like a top but now suddenly it runs like a turd. Any help would be great and Happy New Years! James
