Hey there everyone!
I recently purchased a 1988 e30 vert as my very first project car. My knowledge on fixing and diagnosing cars is extremely limited as I never got the opportunity to fix cars when I was younger.
So the issue I am currently having is that the car feels sluggish. EXTREMELY sluggish. It drove great when I first purchased it, but about 2 weeks after I purchased it I got an oil change(the original owner had used 5w30, I searched and found many people said to use 20w50) I parked the car and woke up next morning to something that felt quite sluggish. Like the car almost struggles to accelerate even when I floor the throttle.
As I stated I am extremely new to fixing cars, but I figured the only way to learn is to read and ask questions, so please be easy! What are some things I could check and/or look? Any advice is priceless, small or large. I am learning new things about the car day by day.
Cheers!
