ok so i have been driving it lately quite abit, however I took it for a good ride, out to the lake about an hour worth of driving there and back at abotu 95mph or so...When i get back shes running pretty smoothly, then I go for a ride and i notice that the power isnt' there, so i check the cylinders to see if they are fireing, nope so i turn the car off check the oil, IKES that is kinda low not damaging low but just a tiny bit below the low mark, i fill er up on oil... voila i got six cylinders again..you guys think that i might have soem worn out rings on this old ride?? thanks
