    Still for Sale, Very good price! I've had quite a few people interested, but no one has bought the car yet. Don't let the low price fool you, this car is in very good condition. I've priced it low to move it quickly. I've got a HUGE amount of medical bills to pay off. In addition, my...

    Jack Cotton

    I've been dealing with Jack and his son for many years. My GN has quite a few parts on it from Jack. He has always been extremely helpful and always willing to talk me through any issues. I may be giving him a call soon to talk about brakes. I absolutely HATE the powermaster:mad:

    Took the GN out this morning...died and won't start

    Well, Greg Friend (MeanBuicks) came out today to troubleshoot the issue with my car. We first replaced the crank sensor, thinking that was the most likely suspect. It still didn't turn over. Greg broke out the Buick manual and we began going through the no start troubleshooting tree...

    Yeah, It could be the coil pack. I've had 2 coil packs go bad. When they did, The car didn't die at all, it ran very rough, sputtering and missing. The car was running very smooth and suddenly died. Hopefully it's the crank sensor:wink:

    I got a scanmaster on the car. I set the scanmaster to show the RPMs while attempting to start it. The RPMs show 000. Isn't this an indicator of a bad crank sensor? The FP went from 0 to 42psi on the same attempt to start. Thanks, Jeff

    Price lowered again! I am lowering the price to $13,250. The car is in fantastic shape. It's probably should sell for 16-17K. Feel free to ask Greg Friend (MeanBuicks) about the car. He has done most of the engine and transmission work on it. Let's get it sold. The price in a steal on...

    Crank Sensor...How to replace?

    I'm going to attempt to replace the crank sensor on my 87 GN. All indications point to it being bad. Can someone give me step by step instructions on how to do this? Do I need to change the bracket too? Thanks, Jeff

    Chuck, If the rotor in the cam sensor is in the incorrect position, would'nt the car run very rough as opposed to not starting at all? The car just simply died while I was driving. If it is the crank sensor, do I just need the sensor, or do I need the bracket too? Thanks, Jeff

    The fuel pump is coming on. I've got a FP gauge and it's going to about 42psi. The car is turning over, but not cranking. Probably the crank sensor.

    Could it possibly be the crank sensor?

    Took the GN out this morning...died and won't start

    My 87 GN has been running great for several years without any issues. This morning I took it for a short errand. I was cruising along, no WOT runs or anything. Suddenly the car just stalled. The GN was running smooth as silk, then it just died. All the connections seemed tight. I also...

    Nice lookin Z, but I'm going to pass on any trades right now. I really need the money to pay off medical bills.
