A Few Questions

I'm about to buy a 95 Firebird with the 3.4. Its got a ram air hood and its functional, other than that its pretty much stock. Its got 114K on it and its had the fuel pump replaced and the O2 sensor. Is there anything I should check before I buy this? Engine related and non-engine related things to check? Thanks in advance
Mike

umm...have you test drove it much? Check to see how it accelerates and all that good stuff...see if teh ses light is coming on at hard accelerations, or slowing own after driving 65 or so...just do the old car check, locks windows, seats, lights , windsheild wipers, radio...check the oil...and trans fluid or clutch depending what it is... coolant..ect

Yes do the old car check.
I was able to find out all most all the stuff wrong with my Z28 when I bought it and was able to talk the guy down several hundred more $$$.
