How does it run being a high mileage motor? Are they any flaws?
The car just cut out on me the other day. I believe one of my sensors went bad because it'll crank and run, but if I apply the gas it'll cut out on me. I'll find out what exactly happened on Monday.
Yes there are some flaws...basically, for the buyer, you'll be buying a car with a decent (not showroom) paint job and a running car that needs to be "tweeked" or "tuned" so all the mods can transfer hp to the blacktop.
- I just replaced the headliner and the moonroof seal, but the seal still needs to be adjusted because it still leaks a little.
- The original driver's power seat motor's just about shot
- The AC is not working
- Cruise works only to set the speed/no increase, but I do have a brand new one in it's package
- Tires are pretty old, and I'm not going to replace them before selling the car
- Pull-latch for the parking brake is off
- Plate for the driver's side power window switch is off
There are probably a few more minor flaws I forgot to mention, but keep in mind, this car was my 23 year old, daily driver, with 154K+ miles on it. It's a good project car.
I spent $6K+ in the paint & body, and roughly $5K+ on performance upgrades, and if I weren't leaving, I'd finish this project out by fixing the minor flaws and upgrade with a torque converter, injectors, alky, tune, new wheel and tire package.
Sorry so long!
