It seems ever since I got an air hole in my exhaust pipe (due to bad weld job) I have had a loss of power. I’m not sure if this is the reason though. The hole is right before my catalytic converter and beside one of my O2 sensors. Could this big air hole be [...]

Recently aquired car ( see last weeks question! ).

So far I have lost almost 100 miles on my 17 gallon tank. I was able to get approximately 320 but now I barely get 240. I have changed the plugs, which looked just fine, oil, filter, etc and no difference. The alignment was perfect and I haven’t noticed any breaks sticking. I don’t get [...]

I know this isn’t to do with the fuse because the front wipers still work. I assume it’s a problem with the connections, but how do I fix this myself?
