I have had no warning lights or drivability problems. I figured I would give her a tune up since fuel prices are rising. I have a 2000, V6 manual tranny with about 60,000 miles. I did not change the PVC valve, yet. Nick P

Check your service guide. Smell of gas probably normal, but were they wet and how were their general appearance? Also how long had car been sitting since last shut-off? 98 Mystique LS v6 atx 163,000km 97 Contour LX v6 atx 163,000km
