  1. there is round black canster ,with 3 black hoses , if i remember it is the bigger of the 2 , start car , pull hose and put it into seafoam can let it suck into the motor , + pour some into carb or spfi ,but not to much , then put the rest into the gas tank , there might be a few other vacuum hoses ,
  2. maybe bad plug wires, or vacuum lines , give it a tune up , also drain and fill tranny , check timing ,
  3. i got my tranny cooler [ light duty] from advance auto on line , 37 bucks i think shipped + new 2 row radiator for my turbo wagon , no i am not going to tow anything ,just piece of mind , i am going to run the ac this summer , so the motor + tranny should be cooler, i ran it going though the new radiator + tranny cooler
