well i just got my 96 gt convertable 5spd not too long ago,wrecked fixed it up it has 107,700 miles and ive put 700 miles on it since ive been driving it. the car runs strong but i wanna keep up on matience so it will last me awhile and run at its best.i dont know when the last time it was maintained since i bought it wrecked.
im planning on buying 6 quarts of royal purple 10w30 and 4 quarts of royal purple tranny fluid. i was thinking about buying royal purple super coolant additive as well.
should i replace the plugs and wires soon? how about the coil packs?

Replace and change everything if you don't know when any of it was last changed.

I would say plugs, wires, coil pack, oil, tranny fluid, and check the belt. Make sure you got full coolant.

thanks alot. ill probably do the plugs wires and coil packs over the winter since ill be putting it in the garage soon for the winter and its running fine. i just replaced the belt cause it went to ****.

Mod motors run on 5w20, not 10w30. Other than that, sounds good

mrxr250rider

really? cause theres a oil change kit on 50 resto for a 96-00 and it comes with 10w30.
then theres a 01-04 kit with 5w20.

Windsor blocks = 5W-20 (5 Qt)
Romeo Blocks = 5W-30 (6 Qt)

I don't know that that's correct. I have a 2k4 (Romeo block), and I run factory spec...5w20. Factory spec also says 5.7L of oil, including filter change.

mrxr250rider

so i should be good with 6 quarts of 5w20 and a new filter?

Nope, I have a 2000 GT and my manual says 5 Quarts.
