1984 Oldsmobile Delta 88 review from North America
"D-Nasty"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The distributor bushings went out and had to replace distributor (200$).
I know that my grandpa has had the compressor replaced and converted to r134a.
The water pump was replaced along with all new hoses and belts (not because they failed, but because he knew I was going to be driving it 1000 miles back home.)
General comments?
The car is not as fast as my old Seville, but it runs a lot better and is in almost perfect condititon. I got this car from my Grandpa about 3 months ago and I love it. Car runs great. I drove it from Louisiana to Missouri within 2 days. That was about 1000 miles. I wouldn't hesitate to drive across the US in this car.
