    Hi, I've been driving a 99' GT with 120K on it for about a week, and when it is cold it sputters under load. In first, I have to let the clutch out at high RPMs so it doesn't sputter. When I am coasting with the clutch in, the RPMs slowly fall down under 500 then die. I am a 5.0 kinda guy so...

    My PS Pulley Jiggles, I'm Guessing This is Bad.

    Old Belt Squeeks, New Belt Squeaks, WHY?

    I installed a new harmonic balancer a few months back. I don't remember if that is when it started, but maybe the pulley isn't lined up perfectly? The tensioner is still hard to pull down, so I don't think it is that. I have Mac UD pullies I installed over a year ago. WHy do my belts squeak?
