Took in car to be repaired and was told that plunger in air mass part is stuck and that it would cost between 500 to 600 to repair. Any suggestions on what to do? Can I simply spray carb cleaner to free it up, car starts up fine and by manually pushing on the gas petal it revs up fine, but driving it and going through the gears I can't bring it up to speed, 55mph tops any feed back would be appreciated. Was thinking of a conversion to a weber carb?
Thanks Gary FIRST POSTING Love this site!
