Just bought my daughter her first car, a 240, 93, 4 door automatic, 99k miles. Need some cheap advice.
What should I do to the car as preventive maintance now??? I heard I should change timing belts. Anything else??
Gas milage, seems a little low, about 21 on the interstate. Is this about right or should I be seeing better??
Needs a heater fan in the dash as this rascal screams when cold for a minute or so. Is this a B*** or fairly easy.
Headlight high beam seems difficult to stay on, the stick make the move and activates okay but high beams do not stay on. i suspect a bad relay????
Valve adjustment???
Would appreciate all good advice.

Paul
