View Full Version : What could be the cause for this?
I notice my 97 auto magna tf isnt as fast as it was once.. it takes like double the time to accelerate now, i notice if i take a turn from a taffic light then have to go up a steep hill, i nearly have to push acclerate to the metel to get me some decent speed up the hill.. and also notice the car is much louder...
Im getting some injector cleaning liquid tomorrow..
any other ideas what it could be?

have you been keeping to the service schedules? late services combined with torrid driving conditions usually hamper the car's performance significantly. if you haven't serviced your baby in a while, i'd recommened you save on the injector cleaner for the time-being and bring it in for a good tune-up at a good mechanic.

Thats what my problem is, injectors for sure.
MadMagna, what would you reccomend is the best to clean injectors as there are a number of methods.
Ultrasonic's i have been told are the way to go

yeh i got a 98 tf
got 3 platinum plugs at the back and just normal ones at the front
So its either my injectors need seriously cleaning or spark plugs replaced? Can I get a 2nd opinon on this?
Thanks.
