    no spark troubleshooting

    Ok, so this will be egg on my face. I lowered my fuel pressure. It was set at around 55 psi line on. Now it's at like 42 line on. Starts every time now, even when up to operating temperature. Must have been flooding the damn thing and couldn't even tell.

    no spark troubleshooting

    I have a bit different condition with my GN. I have tried and troubleshooted my way through things and am stuck with a situation where the car will start up on command every time......until it reaches operating temperature. Then it won't restart again until I wait about 1-2 hours. Then it...

    You don't want that car. Just give it to me.

    GNX #054 - Mecum Auto Auction

    Interesting car. I talked to the guy for quite a while. I actually got forced into the conversation because I chose to wear one of my GN caps....he saw it and then had to prove to me why his was better, which it obviously is. He told me the headliner started to fall last year or the year...

    My new GN,almost literally, 1,400 miles

    Dayum......I'm super jealous. I thought I did good by finding a bone stock completely unmolested GN with 47K miles on it back in 97. There ARE still some practically new examples of these cars out there still. Many thanks for sharing and CONGRATS on the purchase.......and I wish my paint...

    My soon to be Daily driver....

    Yep, that's an '81 or so header clip on the front of that car. Nothing wrong with that, but if it's an '87, I'd put the correct header panel on it as well. I like the 3800 series motors just fine (we owned a 2000 Regal GS that I loved dearly), but I'd never put one in a full size 80's Regal...

    WTF!!!

    Back when that completely stupid program was run by the Govmt....I heard that there was an acutal GNX that was traded in.....but it was salvaged and kept by someone within the Govmt. They knew what it was, so they laughed and gave the "common man" his/her $4500 and laughed as they drove it away...

    Sad Loss For the Buick Community

    Truly sad news here.....hearts and prayers go out to the Bonecutter family on this great loss. I've known Lloyd and Shari for years (not as well as others, but I've basically seen them every year at least once for the past 13 years or so). God Speed Shari. Your gracious heart will live on.......

    "My Gbody With Grand National Hood"

    I love the dark grey color on your 'Bu! I'm not a fan of the big wheels either, but you are probably correct in that you'd get chopped up and spit out where you live if you didn't do it that way. Good job on the hood. I have always been partial to the GN hood buldge and it looks great on...
