So, the Young Princess took the wagon out the other day, because the Older Princess was driving the Escort. She came home and said, "Wow, Daddy! That car is sloooooow." Now, she may be used to the Ford, but actually she is right. I know that the 245 is heavy and will never be a speedster, but, truthfully, this one is painfully slow. Entering a freeway is a white-knuckle endeavor, and it takes for-ev-er to get up to speed. Oh, she'll cruise nicely at 75 or so, but when you can time the acceleration with a calendar, I can't help but think something needs adjustment. Fuel pumps are fine. Filters clean. Gave engine two internal cleanings. AMM cleaned. So, I'm wondering if the cam timing is off a cog or two? Before I get into it, am I looking at this correctly, of is there something simpler to review first? Help, please!
