    I have a cracked outer horn ring (the part with the fake allen heads) and am thinking about trying to find a replacement (blue). How does the ring come off??? I don't want to end up with the horn blaring etc. I have learned over the years that sometimes these little things are not as easy as...

    Rear filler panels

    Well it's getting about time to replace my rear filler panels and I notice that G-body Parts sells the fiberglass type and Kirban sells the ABS type. Anyone had any experience with either of these two types??? Kirban is far more expensive but would rather have the best of the two types than to...

    Kenne Bell filter

    I have the old (1988) Kenne Bell cold air intake unit (under bumper type) and would like to replace the air filter. The KB stock number appears to be--46001. I went to the KB website but it looks like they are no longer in the Buick business. I also did not see anything on the K&N...

    Fan turn on temp...

    Can someone tell me at about what temp the cooling fan should turn on with the AC turned off???? Mine turns on at once when the AC is switched on but it never seems to run when the AC is off and the temp will get close to 190 or so after idling for 10mins or so. Anyone have any thoughts???

    Headers--to use or not use???

    I have never driven another turbo Buick other than my mostly stock 87 T-type. When I bought the car in 1994 it had Kenne Bell headers on it which had been installed in 1989. To me the car ran great, never seemed to run out of power when driven flat out on the highway. Someone else, who had...

    Powermaster weirdness....

    Well, I don't know what to think about this latest quirk in my brake system. With the engine either running or off w/ ignition on---I step on the brake pedal, release it and then a clicking sound comes out of the powermaster area under the hood. will do it 3-6 times and then stop until I step...

    Brake problem.....

    OK, here we go. The brakes work fine as long as you are just loafing along and using them easy. However, if I hit them quick and hard the pedal gets hard instantly and no power brakes. That is the only time they act up. I had the accumulator bowl replaced a couple of years ago and all was well...
