Replaced the intake manifold(recall)Thermostat,wires, coils, plugs,alt, battery, cleaned MAF and throttle body.The car runs and start.Just choke @99 mph.Used to go 110mph.I think my son reprogramed the ECU so I don't get killed,lol,.It botthers me, because my 99 marquis LS used to glide @70-75 mph, without pushing it.Now drops the rpm and have to step on the gas. I think that's the reason for the bad millages.Otherwise have 144,600m and looks, runs like new.Thanks.
