Thanks for the help. I have ordered a new cap and rotor (on markdown/wholesale cost at Rockauto.com). -Never used these guys before, but with $6 for a rotor and $6 for a cap, I figure why not? Also caused me to buy Raybestos Pro brake shoes $15 and a few other things I could probably do without!
The weather got considerably less humid the past day or so and I have noticed no sputtering at all lately. With that said, I now recall that I did not replace the cap in the past as I thought I did earlier. I am quite confident this is where the issue lies.
I took her in for a couple tires today (about $135 for the whole job). The left rear picked up a nice shiny screw a couple weeks back-surprisingly no leak (explains the ticking sound I suspected was just road tar sticking to wheel on 95 deg days!). I also told the guy behind the counter to try not to spend too much time admiring my "custom" exhaust. (It consists of 5ft of straight pipe coming off the header, 4-5 more ft of flexible pipe and a cheap as I could find muffler @ fleet farm.
>Ford Aspire exhaust new cat back: $350, my po' boy: $55....and annual flex pipe replacement: $15 (and a few f bombs and some blood in the process)<
Have a nice weekend!
