I need a new battery and I like the sound of the Dyna Batter from performancedistributors. Does anyone have an opinion on this? I like the weight w savings, but there is no hold down to properly place this battery or a side post type of battery model that they offer. Any suggestions on this?

What kind of battery do you have in your street driven turbo Buick?

Would you know the heater hose size that goes to the throttle body? I need to replace these 2 hoses.

Where would you find heater hoses plugs to cap off the heater pipe to the throttle body? What size and clamps? Has anyone done this?

I am going to replace my stock alternator pulley with a billet aluminum pulley, but what's the stock pulley fastener's size?

I would like to express my utmost gratitude to Brian Weaver from G Body Parts for assisting me in a hard to find part. Last week I had the pleasure to talk to Brian Weaver regarding technical assistance for my 87 Turbo T. I changed the alternator last week and assumed that the serpentine belt...

There seems to be a lot involved just to remove valve covers on these engines. The driver's side rocker cover has a harness, the alternate and brackets which make it difficult to remove just to change v/c gaskets. I heard it was worse to change gaskets on the passenger side. I guess I'm just...

I just got a set of new oil cooler lines. How hard are they to remove and replace? Is there any precautionary measures I should take? It looks like there's only 2 O-rings used with this set? Is this right?

I just ordered a Fel Pro permadry valvecover gasket set. Does anyone know exactly what part needs to be trimmed and if so, do you have any pics, and what tool would you use? Should there be anything to hold the gasket inplace when attaching them to the valve cover? Is simple green good to use to...

I recently heard of a EGR valve replacement filter. What the heck is this? I know what an egr valve is, but where is the filter? Buick recommends a service interval of 30,000 miles. Here's a link:Filter - EGR Solenoid Valve

I've been noticing that my front parking lights only have an outer light bulb (2057A amber bulb). Everyone else has both inner and outer working. I physically removed my parking lights to find an empty socket opening on both inner sides of the housing(s). However, the empty holes are on the top...

I just installed a translator plus with a LT1 MAF sensor because my stock MAF took a dive. It runs great as far as idling (haven't tested it out on the road, had no time). The big question is that my translator plus has three connectors. One connector connected to the adaptor to the MAF, the...

I just changed my fuel filter to an AC Delco fuel filter, I made sure that it was installed properly as well. Now my car has an off idle stumble, a check engine light on. What gives? A defective fuel filter? AC delco? I don't have a scanmaster so that sucks. I drive the car, and under light...

I've got the Kirban's guide to 1986 and 1987 Turbobuicks. He recommends using the vacuum line that goes in front of the transmission dipstick. There are no photos of this, can anyone locate this line? Is there another line to tap into other than this a turbo boost gauge?

I recently purchased an autometer 2 1/16", "Ultralite" Turbo Boost and Fuel Pressure gauge(s). I have a few concerns regarding what a ferrule and a sealing nut is and how its used for the boost gauge tube connection using this diagram http://www.egauges.com/pdf/AutoMeter/691f.pdf. Is it...

Does anyone have a replacement or used (good shape) intercooler shroud and scoop for a 1987 GN?:frown:

I went to O'Reilly's auto parts and asked for AC Delco spark plugs and the partsman gave me part #41-803 platnum plugs. Anyone use these? Feedback please.:confused::confused:

I just ordered auto meter Ultra Lite boost and fuel pressure gauges. I haven't received them yet from Summit racing, but I just wanted to see how they install as far as making them work. I ordered these gauges as follows: Auto Meter 4363 - Auto Meter Ultra-Lite Analog Gauges - Overview -...
