1992 Eagle Talon 2.0L Non Turbo review from North America
"High performance that requires routine maintenance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Burns oil. After rebuilding the engine and driving it for 1700 miles, it started to burn oil while idling. Only while idling.
General comments?
Car runs strong like nothing is wrong, only the oil burning while idling is causing me some grief. I have found at least 5 other owners that had the same problem with this engine, both Non Turbos and Turbos. I don't believe it is a turbo problem.
Car handles like a champ. I have owned 4 and now I am down to 3. I am currently rebuilding the engine in a Turbo AWD.
