JohnnyBoyShoots Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Does this count? I just bought this, and plan to put it on the road (after some work of course). It's an '86 IROC with the original TPI on a Buick 350 block, cam, headers, 700R4 (previous owner had it built by a performance shop), mini spool, busted ass dry rotted tires, rusted through floor pans, leaky brake line, a couple severe rust spots in door and A-pillar...

SubLo Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Why? 'Cause I live in NYC. I live to spend 40 minutes nightly, coming home from work, just to find a parking spot across the street (alternate side parking). If I owned a house, I'd keep it. Sigh... The LGT stays in a rented garage with my bike and other toys. ________________________________________________ [URL="http://legacygt.com/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=1980"]'05 BSM OBXT Row-your-own, W.I.P. :rolleyes:[/URL] [URL="http://legacygt.com/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=1242"]'06 Shrek B # 64 - The car the wife loved to hate :( Sold...[/URL] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyBoyShoots Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 ^ Buick 350? bosco Sorry, I have to admit that I really have no idea what the block is... I'm just going by what the previous owner said. I looked up the Buick 350 on wiki, and it doesn't seem likely since they stopped producing them in the 70s. If I could find an engine code, that might help, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isuace Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 ^^^^ what kind of engine issues? There is a slight miss at idle, poor power output, and when you get to 3000-3500 rpm's it misfires so hard it basically shuts down. So far I have replaced the fuel pump and sending unit, fuel filter, wires, plugs, exhaust manifold (prob not related but it was cracked), had the exhaust checked out, pulled the distributor and verified that the new cap and rotor that the PO put on were installed correctly. Next up is replacing the coil and then cleaning the fuel rail and all the injectors :spin:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next up is replacing the coil and then cleaning the fuel rail and all the injectors :spin:. definately check on the coil. When they get warm, the coil packs like to get high in resistance causing low spark. Any faults? Also check the spark plugs are properly gapped ( 0.035 iirc). I also meant to ask... 4.0L or 2.5? Had a guy at work with a Wrangler that had the camshaft wear down on two lobes causing the valves not to fully open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, it was dark and rainy when I took these: That looks identical to the L98 TPI on my 85 corvette. I dont think its a buick block. Doesnt make sense. Looks to me like a normal 5.7L l98 engine. If thats the case check corvetteforum.com out, lots of info on the l98 there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
