1991 Chevrolet Lumina Z34 review from North America
"Love the car if I can get it running"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bought this car on Oct. 11, 2008. Have driven it a total of 2 and a half weeks. Have replaced the catalytic converter, O2 sensor, computer, cooling fan, and the idle sensor. This was all per the dealer saying they could find nothing wrong.
Our next step per the mechanic is lower intake gaskets. Pray for the best.
Worst purchase I have ever made. Love the car but cannot keep putting money with no results.
The car runs great cold. When it warms up only a small amount, it will not idle.
It dies when slowing down or stopping, but will run very well on acceleration.
General comments?
Could use some expert advice since I cannot get a good mechanic.
The car is fast and handles great when it runs.
