Hey guys/gals,
I took my car to the dealership today for a tune up and an oil change. I went in the back with the mechanic to talk to him while he worked on my car and when we took the spark plug wires off they just fell apart! I was like, "WTF!!! are they supposed to do that?" He told me that could be a problem . He asked me who installed the wires and I told him they were on there when I got the car. There were two problems with the wires. 1 they were to small. They are 7MM and nissan uses 9MM. 2 they fell the funk apart! So I think I found the main problem for my car being so damn slow. But anyways, I had to leave my car there because every local nissan, autoparts store, and mechanic in my area that them/I called didn't have my wires in stock! . So Im with out a car until monday when they can get the wires. I have been without it for 2 hrs and im already going nuts. So this just goes to show that you don't know what your getting into when you buy a used car.
My problems to date include:
- bad clutch
- rusted muffler coupler(muffler broke off)
- wrong size spark plug wires that fell apart.
These are all things I guess the previous owner didn't take care of. O'well
