1991 Chevrolet Corsica LT review from North America
"Needed work but loved it anyway"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Needed new battery.
Alternator.
Fuel pump.
Starter.
Wiring issues (fuses for display light kept blowing)
General comments?
This was my first car, I bought it for $1800 cash and was quite proud of myself. The truth is I didn't do routine maintenance on it. The fuel pump going out was probably my fault.
I did let the car overheat and I did have to seal up a head gasket with that "car Go" stuff. Which worked really well and worked on my new car that I had a similar problem with.
The car had a lot of pep and was fun to drive as well as roomy. I ended up selling it when I was gifted my current car. Whenever I see Corsica's I get a little nostalgic and in a way I wish I would have just kept it. Thankfully my father in-law is a mechanic :P.
