Umm... LIL HELP


So just last year i bought a mustang cobra, it is a 98. The car has only 40,000 miles on it, 3000 of hem are from a recent cross country trip. My uncle owned it before i did, the car has definately been taken care of. Garage during the winter never seen rain ect, well untill i bought it. But it still has not seen the winter roads and it is laways garaged. Well anyway there has never been any maintenance on it other than normal oil changes and tires. Is there anything that i could or should do for it?

spark plugs, wires and rotor, fuel filter, change your rear differential oil and transmission oil (and filter if automatic)... check all around for any leaks (best to get it on a drive on lift and look from underneath) you might want to get some subframe connectors to stiffen up the body... besides that everything should be good...

I was wondering about that myself. I guess from us old guys, though, it just naturally comes out. Force of habit. Might wanna change those points, too. See what I mean, force of habit. Don't go looking for the points.

Also, check your brake pads, rotors, and belt.

Drain and flush your radiator could be an option, too.
