Thread: found a clean p10 as is...question though...

Running Rough as if on 3 cylinders and smell of gas fumes. The salesman said it was from water in #1 plug, but thats dried out now. I suspect CTS. Damn for this price...but i cant go throwing parts at it and they want to sell it as is. Whats a brother to do?

Carpal tunnel syndrome? How bad could it be? Beat 'em up on the price and go for it!

Hmmmm, smelling like gas and running on 3 cyclinders?? Could be a fuel leak?? Torn lower injector o-ring??

They don't want to budge on the 1200 price, but that body is straight and rust free even if it is a auto. Master cylinder is low on fluid and brake light is on. I want to add that to the selling point too. I swear I want to see if the plugs and wires are backward and change the CTS but this is not mine "Yet". I really want to cry cause this is my entry back in....

It could be a bad o2 sensor if it is an OBD1 model. What year is the G20?



Coolant Temp. Sensor?

Do you have access to a Consult cable & laptop?

C

Agreed. Find out what it is.

Also I had water in my cylinders from a cai when I had my b15 I removed the plugs, cranked it a bit, and it ran fine with perfect compression. The key was not restarting it after it ingested the water and I turned it off. If it was repeatedly started or run with water in the cylinders it has probably bent some valves.

Plus it's an auto! When I was looking for a new car I test drove an auto p10 and p11. Even for a beater it would drive me crazy. No clean chassis in your region?

Or have them check the compression so at least you have an idea.

C'mon, $1,200. Throw caution to the wind and grab it!!

It is a beautiful 93 OBD1 HIGH Port. Owned by an old man.
