  9. Have you had your hearing checked on your left side?!!! FYI, I just checked mine, and it also doesn't work, but i prefer listening to the engine and the turbo spool up when I drive....
  10. That has to be the cheapest TC ever for sale....
  11. I agree with hemi completely, in that he has a lifetime of troubleshooting these engines. The only thing I could offer is to check and REPLACE all of your vacuum lines and fittings. While they may LOOK good, they can be soft, have slits/cracks in them that bleed, or any number of other failures. And in a 30+year old engine, that means 30+ year old hoses, which have a finite life. Not hard to do, or expensive either. Just do one at a time, and reference the EPA sticker. I cant tell you the number of drivability problems I have remedied with this simple process.
  12. This guy says his has only 2,000 miles, and has complete documentation. Lowest I've seen yet.. sure looks like it just came off the assembly line. Read all he has to say.. www.ebay.com/itm/115638674149?hash=item1aec9a22e5:g:vYwAAOSw7ohjl4T9&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAoMZ%2FcPUJYkzSOiJykzLfSG2ooVFjm8HzpsmKMaHU9IkzhC4lgngxhs7QKy9lSdhKELaKp6pHmvdN1KZ%2FJNNS0qbApfX6wUy2Wx7WJTETHxJrcw%2FBy5Y%2BDiPtq9fcRmGT8Wn3OIof0b%2Fw7UiDrNVF9NnZbslw14QFqFq%2B3Az4gFKHUZBzB0mSLLGzG1JJYexGiUpeydi7c0tClcgMQCbtZus%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR-ym1pSiYQ
  13. Thats it!! Clean up is with alcohol, industrial grade, not vodka, that is the only thing that cuts it well, it can get a bit messy when using it Good Luck!
  14. Where can one purchase this LED device?
  15. Get the gasket AND use a product called " Leak-Lock" available at professional plumbing A/C stores. It is a blue joint sealer used for gas fitting. I have used it for 45+ years on all ac and gas joints, with ZERO leaks if applied correctly. All of my joints on my TC's AC system have it, and it works well ac have it, sith No leaks
  16. Great photos! I think your price is very correct and reasonable for the car. i would put a big red bow on the roof, and advertise it locally. This is perfect for some teenage kid, and now is the right time to market it as a Christmas present!!! I bet it doesn't last a week.............
  17. Yes. Stop driving it. Search "Brakes" on the upper box of this forum. Read everything that is posted. A wealth of information.
  18. i don't want to undermine all off the good advice that has been given on this thread, but do the BASICS first. You have been handed an (assembled) NIGHTMARE BASKET CASE! Make sure that the fuel is fresh, not contaminated by old fuel lingering in the lines. Start at one point and make sure ALL of the vacuum lines are where they should go. If necessary, ask questions about their destination from the fittings, as referenced from the EPA sticker. After that, you May want to look at the hall plate, but i agree with Hemi, You Are In Over Your Head, and need to seek a competent mechanic! You state "Mechanics shops now days just gouge you or take advantage and lie so.. I always do my own work.If possible." Some do, but ask around, and you will find there are GOOD, COMPETENT shops out there that are well worth what they charge for the accurate, correct diagnosis and repairs they provide. They will save you lots of time and headaches!
  19. Gas has been sitting in tank for almost 2 years --" when I press shrader valve on fuel line it sprays out but smells a little pungent" Remember what I suggested???? Can't tell you how many cars I have worked on which had been "sitting" with bad gas in them started and ran fine when i emptied the tank and replaced with fresh gas...
  20. " car sat for 2 years " could be your problem. Have you smelled the gas coming from your injectors, and does it smell like vinegar or worse? Sounds like some bad/old gas or some gunk & sludge in the fuel system might be to blame.. I would try draining the tank as much as possible with a syphon hose , then adding 5 gals of fresh gas then trying it Couldn't hurt...
  21. Will, with your attitude and the condition of the car be prepared to have it for a Long, LONG time. I have been following TC sales for almost two decades, and have bought and sold a dozen or so, and you have a $3500 car, at best. You could have it towed to the nearest garage for repairs, with no HOA interference.
  22. Had the pleasure of meeting the owner last weekend. A very nice fellow who was from the auto industry for many years. He stated that he had just sold this 16v for $4000.
  23. What happened to your car? Did life get in the way? Inquiring minds want to know.....
