"Not a high performance bargain"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

This car started off great, it ran awesome and seemed to be off to a great start. Then I noticed that the car had problems in between second to third gear would began to rev. Then to set it all off I looked under the car when I got home to find the entire bottom part of the car covered in transmission fluid. It is also difficult to find parts from where I am at.

General comments?

I have noticed that it seems to run fairly poorly compared to its brother the GT. I believe that if you were to get this car to think twice, I have had problems since the very beginning and I fear there will be more to come. One thing that has been good is places to put sub-woofers and other stereo stuff.

Hey bro, I have a 4cyl probe with more miles on it than yours. It runs like a top. Whomever had the car before your obviously didn't take very good care of it. Your transmission leak is probably due to a rear main seal leak. A rear main seal leak is easily repairable. Also, the performance of the probe is excellent, you are most likely experiencing power loss due to poor engine care. Did you take the vehicle to a mechanic before you purchased it? Anyway, I hope you have better luck with your car, they really are great rides.

Hello I also have a probe it's a 1995 se (4 cyl) it's a great little car it has nice performance and since I street race it I usually beat jap and german cars. I agree with this dude that says your car may of not been right in the first place.

Joel, what performance parts you runnin and where did you get them? How much you got in invest? I'm about to get a Probe for 1700 and it's a 4 cyl. I like the car; it's got 115,000 miles on it and it's a five speed. Where do you race? Maybe we could hook-up someday.
