97 Corvette tech help
Hey guys yesterday I was running my car and towards the end of the day it felt like the power wasnt their. The car has 36k miles original everything... Mods are in my sig not much but it just felt sluggish to me towards the end of the day. And on the way home I tried to take off in 3rd gear and I thought i was in a CIVIC. Is their anything I should try doing first? No codes appeared.
And also im draining the tranny fluid soon what fluid should I put back in and should I get an additive? :banghead:

Heat soaked engines, can cost you as much as 20hp. My 1st strip run barely made it into the 13s. Drove 75 miles to strip, went directly to tech. then sat in staging lane for ten minutes, coolant temp was 205. My last run on a diffferent day, coolant temp 178, .7 quicker
