    Spark Plug Question

    The 87 GN was running rough so when it went to the garage for a brake change-over to vaccum, I had the mechanic to put new plugs in. The mechanic said that the front two plugs on the left and right banks were real bad. I looked at them and the electrode grounds were gone. The part that makes...

    Intermittent Brake Light

    I think I asked this question once before but I didn't understand the answer. My brake light will come on when I hit the brake and will stay on for a half second and go back off until I hit the brake again. I have a good brake but I scary when you see the light come on out the corner of your...

    Low Idle Question

    Here's what I did....I adjusted my wategate because I was making too much boost for the gas I was using (89 octane). I was maxing out at around 17-18 lbs. I gave the rod several turns counter-clockwise. I let the car warm up (Idle) for a few minutes and got a 44 CODE. I located the vaccum...

    87 GN Body Bushings

    Where can I buy a COMPLETE set of rubber frame to body bushings? I'm not sure if there are any missing on my 87 but from what I hear, there were some left out at the factory and also some that were meant for the GNX. I'd like to get a set and make this T-Top ride like new.

    Black Leather Interior

    A while back, one of the members had pics of their 87 GN and it had black leather interior. I can't find the old post. If anyone knows who it was, shhot me an e-mail at nascar2443@aol.com. I thought the car really looked good with all that black inside. I'd like to know more.

    Shaky Windshield

    I have a question about the windshield posts (Maybe the A pillar) Everytime I get on rough road, seems the windshield and posts shake on my 87 GN T-Top car. I know those metal plates located behind the windshiels and the front of the t-tops are rusted and have a set ordered. My question is if...

    Hydrocarbon failure

    My 87 is stock. It has always passed emissions test (Indiana) After I gutted the CAT, the car failed even with the stock chip. The guy frist said that he thought the car wasn't warmed up enough so I took it out for a good run. Came back and the reading was a little higher than the first time...

    Suggestion

    I was on a Buick website (can't find it again) and there was a section on the site that listed persons and vendors with whom members have had a bad experience with. I think most of us have ordered parts, new and used, from persons on websites only to be ripped off. I think something like this...

    T-Top Question

    Seldom take my t-tops out but when I did, I found that there seems to be a plate right behind the top of the windshield and runs back to the front of the t-top openings. I found they are rusted all to h***. I don't know what they are called and if they are replaceable. They look to be about 2"...

    LeSabre T Radio Question

    I have a 88 LeSabre T-Type and it came with AM/FM/Cassette and had the red dash lights in it. Does anyone know where they can be sent off to and re-conditioned? The tape player just clicks and there a couple lights burned out inside the radio. I wanted to keep this car original if possible.

    RPM and SPEEDO lights

    Hope I got the right area here. My 87 GN had the stock dash lights (non-digital). The RPM and the BOOST lights aren't even close to being accurate. Can they be calabrated or replaced separte from the rest of the panel. I have one of the original 150 MPH speedo panels that did not use the...

    electric antenna repair

    Anyone ever tried to repair the electric antenna on the 87 GN? The motor runs fine but the mast won't go up or down. I'm certain that it is the cord inside the mast that is broke. I've seen repair "kits" but haven't ever tried one. Any websites out there showing how to fix the thing?

    Clunking Sound In Transmission

    :confused: I have an 87 GN and a 88 LeSabre T-Type. In both cars, when going from either PARK or NEUTRUAL to any other gear, I get a "clunk" sound. It seems to be from "slack" either in the trans or rear end. The :eSabre is front wheel drive. I know this is a common thing with higher mileage...
