Broken linkage in the gearbox.
Head gasket.
Alternator.
Regulator.
A little rust and water leaks.
Great little car, just needs more power (eg 80 kilowatts) and better rust protection.
Gets the job done.
We have just recently bought a white TF SL Gemini for $1500, little rust, 3 months rego, and I couldn't agree with you more. Great reliable little car, although has crap box power. Tons of mileage, done at least 10, two and half hour trips within the last 3 months.
I recently bought an 82 Gemini, which currently has a blown head gasket. I'm going to fully rebuild the motor and was wondering if blown head gaskets are a common problem. The car was only owned by old people and never driven hard.
Any main reasons for blowing head gaskets?
