Classic Car? by slackerman

A guy came by my house today to buy a trail-a-bike. He saw my car with the top down and asked what it was. He was stunned to find out it was a 1996 Sunfire convertible. "Sharp", he said.
 
Nice to know my old car is still getting compliments.

im not sure where the governer is but it does have one. my 2000 sunfire is goverened at 108 mph roughly. after that the its as if there is no more gas to the engine and is slows down so fast its almost like the brakes come on not a good feeling to have when your going that fast.

Sunfires are electronically limited to 109mph. Figure it's more due to the suspension not being able to handle any more speed than the engine not being able to produce enough power. What is your tach at when you hit 108?
 
Moral of the story, you're not meant to go that fast in a Sunfire.

2003 pontiac sunfire, automatic transmission, vehicle has 70,000 kms.
When engine is turned on, idles around 1000 rpms. Speedometer doesnt move when going forward, when trying to accelerate rpms will jump between 3000 to 5000 and car will not accelerate at the proper speed. Car was fine earlier in day, parked for 6 hours, then problems began.
