I used to have that exact model year. mine was that nice metallic dark grey.
I recently parted her out and sent the carcass to the junkyard.


Mine picked up a number of werid hard-to-diagnose problems before I quite driving it. Mine would actually sputter, loose power, and backfire several times before it started to drive properly. I never really got it solved, but in retrospect, I strongly suspect that the injector temperature sensor was telling the car it was cold, so it was continuously dumping too much fuel into the system

My FPR also went all wonky at one point and the ECU ramped up the main pump until it hissed and buzzed. This ended with the car flooding out and dying rather far from home.

btw: have you checked your throttlebody lately?
