Hello, i just got a contour sport from a "friend" and to be honest i can't trust anything that he says anymore so i thought i'd come here. He gave me the car for $400 and my totalled Civic Si. But anyways, i never saw it til the day i recieved it, he told me that it was in perfect condition and ran perfect. but i get it, theres a huge crack on the windshield, dents in one of the quarter panels, and it stalls or something. He told me that it needs oil change "really bad" and plugs/wires. I think it needs much more, the car has 171,xxx miles, and it just runs really bad. So, lets assume the worste of this car, and i'm pretty much forced to get a tune-up and get it fixed up. So i'm wondering, what all should I replace? I think the fuel filter or something is really clogged or something, cuz the car acts like it's out of gas when it says i have a 1/4 tank left. I dont know, basically throw out the "get rid of it and get something different" stuff out of the way cuz that's just not an option right now, this car needs to last me a while. What all should i replace? Thankyou
