Hello I have probe GT 1996, my problems is recently after my car when thru inspection and fail let me beside the road. I bring the car to the shop and fix the car at least to star it on. After I took the car out of the shop I have a noise on the engine I stop to put gas of course I put the lower gas. Car was running fine with the noise suddenly car star to lose power noise become more louder turner off one almost getting to my home when back on with noise very louder and vibration on the engine. I put a new distributor, cap, rotor, ignition coil, spark plug and battery. Now sit the car on my drive way I when couple the time to star it on everything work except that now does not star on. I really love my car I would like to fixes before get worse.

Inside the engine, it is doing when star but them you no hear after you accellerate the car. I do not know if was the gas the I put or something bad is going on, A mechanic that fix the car distributor want me to put a new engine becuase said he think something is going on and could happen three month later.
