a good way to flush is during ur oil change ... use 3 quarts/ liters of oil and the last one use about half a liter of tranny fluid... it will eat up the gunk in ur car basically its like bleach but for the engine run it like that for about 2 weeks.. no hard revving... then flush completely pour one quart of oil while the oil drain is open to wash out the remains of the tranny fluid then add the oils back in... im using amsoil sythetic now but on occasion use mobil 1 or castrol syntec.

next is ur fuel filter u have about 200k on ur mileage its due time to check ur fuel filter and have ur injectors flushed!! the proper way meaning not just adding additives as stated above they are not good for ur car... u have to go to a shop that handles injectors have urs removed and give it to them to do a proper flushing ... since u have removed it change ur fuel filter as well... running a higher octane gas gives u better mileage and maintains the cleanliness of ur filter and injectors.....

ignition check ur distributor cap... for carbon deposits and etc... if it seems like its a lot.. change ur distributor cap to a new one... check ur plug wires as well and ur spark plugs these normally wear out after time...

last check ur airfilter im assuming u have a stock intake so ur stock filter might be dirty if so it will give u a sluggish performance off the line... and since u are under the hood check ur engine mounts to see that there is nothing broken.. if ur rubber on the mounts are broken due to time it will rob ur engine of power main reason is cos ur engine will move too much there by losing minor power instead of goin straight to the wheel... i hope this helps ... if u got any more questions just post up or Icq me... more than happy to help out
