Had the brake warning light light up about a month back. The pedal was feeling a little soft before, and the brake fluid level was fairly low. Topped off with fluid, brake warning light went off, pedal feel returned to normal. Never any brake issues with this car while I've had it over the...

When the car sits for about a week, not started at all, the electrical power goes to just about zero and it needs a jump-start to get going. (interior, trunk & engine lights very dim and not enough electrical power to operate anything else) When car is driven again after only 2 or 3 days, it...

I know that over time these original alternators simply fail. Has anyone ever had one partially fail? My car typically sits for about 2 weeks at a time, and if I neglect to start it up during those 2 weeks the battery usually needs a jump. After that, everything operates normally. And if driven...

What do you guys recommend for replacements for Alternator, Starter for a mostly stock 87GN? Any ones in particular to definitely stay away from?? I want to replace the original alternator with something more powerful. And as for the starter, something also better than the original units...

Anyone NJ converted their 87 Buick over to Historic QQ Registration? Did you do it in person or by Mail? Last time I looked into this I remember (I think) something about a letter of validation to be included from some type of organization verifying collector status? (on official letterhead...

Does Anyone know where to get 105 or 110 pump gas during the winter months? (from the pump into the car, not a barrel) Only place I know besides a local dragstrip is a Sunoco a little bit of a ways off of Route 80 that intersects Rt. 46. Any time I've passed by there they say they won't...

Hoping to gather some dark of night opinions. 87 GN no electrical power at all, nothing, not even a dim light. Anybody ever had a battery give up the ghost due to a heat wave? Just from a fast look in the dark by flashlight, all the connections seem same as ever. car showed no electrical...

Anybody using octane boosters in their Turbo Buicks on a regular basis? It feels like the gasoline around here just keeps getting weaker, I think that the "winter gas" is pretty much a year round thing for good now. After reading over a post about Sunoco race gas the other night I'm wondering...

What are your recommendations for some of the better orbital polishers available these days? Never used one before, car is not a show car and won't be. But a few times a year want it to be looking its best, better than can be had by hand waxing of my own. And are there ones you...

Original Mass Air Flow MAF Sensor wanted for an 87GN. Not interested in Re-Manufactured or Refurbished units. Thanks

A big THANK YOU to forum member Lazaris for selling me a very hard to find original 87 GN Heater Core. The unit is exactly as he described it to be and he went out of his way to get it to me much sooner than I expected. Completely reliable straight shooter, he gets my highest recommendation!

Has anyone had experiences with the VDO speedometer gauge in the GNX Gauge Cluster basically going a bit haywire? The speedo was never dead on for about a year now; it would jump at low speeds and then at highway speeds it would settle in and consistently read about 5mph on the low side...
