Unless may emotional attachment ka sa Lancer mo, perhaps you are better off selling it. I used to own a 94Lancer. Kaso, isinabak ni misis sa baha sa tanza, dulot ng bagyong milenyo. Naiuwi naman siya ng maayos pero unti unti nang nagloko, starting with high rev when idling, and loss of power pag idle at bukas aircon.
Kakakuha ko lang ng bagong honda city a year before kaya hesitant pa akong palitan yung Lancer. Gumastos pa ako para ipa ayos ang idling nya.
Pero may time na oovertake siya pero pumalya ang transmission at ayaw nang mag change gear ... Buti na lang walang kasalubong. Nang buksan ng friend kong mekaniko, burak na pala ang laman ng transmission, apparently napasok nang binaha.
And that was the last straw for me, inayos lang ng konti then ibinenta na namin bago pa magloko uli. Dinagdagan ko na lang ang napagbentahan at pikit-matang bumili ng bagong oto para kay misis.
Strip its interior trim to clean it, also clean the HVAC pipelines, replace all the cabin filters, and overhaul the engine. I assume it has PCV, so I wouldn't expect it to get water inside the crankcase even after a flood.
