Its old and the throttle body probably desperately needs cleaned start the car and spray some throttle body cleaner into the Carb. Throttle the engine up to about 1200rpms while doing this.

I recently bought a 1985 Chevy Caprice Station Wagon for 200.00 (I am only hoping to get a year or so out of it. I have already payed to have front brakes fixed, newtires and a catalytic converter fixed. As for other problems.1. I need valve covers but because car is leaking oil and or tramsmission fluid on bottom my mechanic said I should make sure I keep fluids in car and check and top off if needed and dont fix valve covers because it is not worth it.2. The owner told me that I should change my transmission fluid every 25,000 miles (The car has 156,000 miles) The mechanic advised me not to change it because it could actually be worse for the car) and last but not least. As I said the car is very rusted on the bottom. Should I have the bottom of the car undercoated whenever I take it to get washed? 6 answers
