Hard to shift at high rpm
Definitely sounds like a clutch issue. FWIW, I've had the same when a PP strap broke.- RonPorter

I found ethanol free 87 octane
I was buying it at BP stations on my trip through WI last year. I'll be headed through there at the end of April, so I'll be planning on getting it there again. Getting gas in IN lets me get through IL without spending a penny there (well, except for the Tolls), so WI is a good gas area.- RonPorter

I found ethanol free 87 octane
Oh no! Quite rare, from what I've seen in various states. I know of nowhere to buy ethanol-free vehicle gas in SE Michigan. Yes, Kroger carries pure-gas 90, but it's 60 cents/gallon higher than 93 (which is 60 cents higher than 87),meant for small engines. And I suspect about the same price...- RonPorter

I found ethanol free 87 octane
In my travels through Wisconsin last summer, I found ethanol-free 91. It was awesome! Temps were over 90 both ways through WI over the 4th of July, and I got a steady 2-2.5 better mpg over 10% alky 93, running my usual 79-80 on the Interstate. The better BTUs of straight gas are better than the...- RonPorter

Surging idle after spark plug wire change
Just offhand I'd say that a vacuum line is having an issue. Old lines don't like being disturbed!- RonPorter

Red 95 ATX
Looks good! Wording on ownership is odd, unless it's the dealer that has owned it for a year, and never reassigned the title from the original owner. -
I am back
Doesn't appear that used SHO prices have increased that badly. The other choices used both have the 2.7 TT: Fusion Sport and Edge ST.- RonPorter

Should I get a resonator?
A resonator will mainly ki ll the rasp. If you have no resonator(s) with those Borlas, I'm sure that the car has godawful rasp under acceleration. A good resonator (or two) are the key to making any muffler sound decent on any V6.- RonPorter
