My Pony has 2.3L, is a 4 banger, 1988 LX Mustang Conv't. Got it from a neighbor who cheated me badly (the odometer was set back 100K, actually 157K). After some major repairs, I managed to restore the car for fun drives in summer.

If anyone have ever had experience like this, I would like to learn a few tricks to correct this problem.

Many thanks in advance!
