I replaced the existing radio (factory??; very old unit) when I purchased
the car this summer, and used the same wiring. The radio installation
didn't coincide with the start of this problem (not to say that a loose
connection may not be the culpret). In fact, I hadn't done anything to the
car in quite a while when this problem started.

Deceleration is normal.
