1993 Pontiac Sunbird review from North America
"Not a reliable car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car is stalling within an allotted time of 20-30 minutes and as well as stalling at high speeds, such as 90.
General comments?
Ever since, I had purchased this car, I quickly became aware of the butcher job the previous owners had done to the exhaust manifold, spark plug treads, head, wiring, thermostat etc.
After replacing the intake manifold, new manifold gasket, thermostat, head gasket, new spark plugs and fuel filter. It is still stalling, after three service technician at Canadian Tire told me:
"They just don't know." I'm running out of ideas to fix this car.
