1991 Buick Regal Limited review from North America
"Sporty, elegant, handles very well, good on gas"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1. the coil pack and module replaced
2. fuel filter replaced
3. timing gears and chain replaced
4. water pump replaced
5. muffler replaced
6. battery replaced
7. rear rotor replaced
8. rear disk brakes replaced
9. CO2 sensor replaced
10. fuel injectors cleaned.
I hope it runs after all this is finished. All the above parts have been installed in the last week, in an effort to get the car back onto the road. It has been sitting since last year when it suddenly quit running. Monday is D-day, if it still won't start it's going to the scrap yard.
General comments?
It has one serious drawback: the large blind spot, thanks to the very wide roof support which cuts into the field of vision. This makes the car dangerous to drive on busy highways, unless you add some extra mirrors to improve your all round field of vision.
