Took car in for checkup....
I finally took the car to a shop for a diagnostic test:
Here are the test results that I remember...
- as far as loss of power, I need a new clutch because the one that I just
put in not too long
ago is already gone again because the people who put it in were shady to say
the least and
want cash only claiming that their credit card machine was broken.
(probably trying to avoid a charge-back if nothing else)
They are Diamond Transmission located in Lithonia, Georgia....stay away
from them.
- my rear engine motor mounts are broken probably causing me to leak only as
the engines moves while i drive according to the service person.
- as far as the hard starting when cold, a valve is supposedly bad cssv or
something like
that along with an AAV or AAC valve or regulator. I have it on the invoice
and will repost later.
I have the air regulator that crowbar sent me but haven't installed it
yet. I'll let you know
the results when I do.
I'm both surprised and glad that they didn't find more problems...what a
car....
I got the impression from the service person that the car probably wasn't
worth the money
to fix considering what all was wrong with it but I didn't pay them any mind.

I tried the air regulator and it didn't fix the problem....
The 2 parts that were mentioned by the service person were:
IAC valve
AAC valve
can someone tell me what those names stand for and how easy it is to replace the
2 parts...?
