i have a 4 cylinder 97 contour sport...weeeee..lol..anyway it takes abnormally long for my car's engine to warm up, cant figure out why, but for it to even get into the normal part it honestly takes about 10 mnis or more depending on time sitting..if the car has been sitting more than 2 hours it will take at least 10 mins, and if i dont wait, which i do now, the car will run horribly, it will bog, and when i shift through gears it has no power, its like i'm just gradually excelarting in the same gear... sometimes the engine will just shut off if i come to a stop...my cel is on, for catylst problem in bank 1...blah blah....i have alot of other problems with it, but i dont have enough space to write it..lol...i think maybe a nice torching of the car would be fine..no seriously, i love my contour, but its frustrating to have so many problems...any suggestions, or if anyone has had the same problem, maybe you can let me know what to do....
