So I'm not having any issues, yet (knock on wood) with my 95' celi gt but... yesterday I drove like 750 miles from Indiana to Connecticut in it. After letting it sit overnight, the engine sounds like a prop plane, much deeper than it ever had. It sounds like a tank when I accelerate! I changed the oil before I left, even put new front brakes in. I checked the fluids and the only one that looks a bit low is the engine coolant.

I'm concerned it wont make it for the return trip so I want to be sure that I can do anything I need to until I make that trip next week. Any suggestions?
