"An iron workhorse"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Alternator problems. Electrical. On turbo #3.
Fuel solenoid problems.
General comments?
It is slow, the top speed is around 70.
It gets 20-25 miles to the gallon. Has a 22 gallon tank. 450 mile radius.
I'm 19 years old and have done all the repairs myself.
It will climb a 30 degree slope in 4 Low from a stop easily.
