other than the cash i still got some problems

So here is what's going on my car has suddenly become not quite as responsive as it used to be. By responsive I mean when I press on the accelerator it takes longer than normal to rev up. My a/c still doesnt work and it acts as if the switch for the a/c is on when it isn't. There are only a couple of things that come to mind that may be related to the problem I am just not sure how...

1. I had failed to check my oil as often as i should and realized i was almost dry out last thursday then I put more oil in.

or

2. I went through an automatic Chevron car wash friday night and do recall the car feeling like it was "drowning" on the way back home that night.


I feel so irresponsible and now that I have some cash my car is turning into mush.

Looks like you might have to hold off on those luxury items and do some maintenance. Pull back the cover on the passenger side firewall, and see if there's water by the DME. 92's will have that problem, but usually the fix was already done if the car had been regularly serviced in its early years.

There is no water in that area so I'm stumped at the moment, I swore that was the problem too.
