The radiator blew out on it today. Still ran like hell until I got home though.
It has a broken front seat had to weld it back into place to repair the broken bolt.
Damn thing leaks oil like a refinery.
The hydraulic arms in hatch are shot.
All five door seals leak, that includes the hatch.
All the door handles are screwed up in some way or another, rear passenger handle is gone completely.
The windshield leaks the whole way across the top.
The rear center brake light is loose.
The carburetor is nearly worn out on it, has to be primed on a regular basis, usually once a week.
The starter blew out at 103000.
The cooling fan wires melted and had to be replaced.
The thing runs like hell and never stops.
It is used on a nearly daily basis as a response vehicle for firefighting applications. It's also used a a pizza delivery vehicle
It seems to go for weeks on a single tank of gas, and only needs about twenty bucks to fill it.
You're using a 1986 Horizon as a response vehicle for firefighting calls?- and for pizza delivery?
Cold pizza is one thing, but have to question the appropriateness of relying on this vehicle for possible life or death situations?
