Default 89 running good, thank you!!!

Thanks to the forum and its members' knowledge I was able to fix a few issues on my 89 convertible.

The car was running very rough with loopy idle after warm up. I removed the TB and plenum and found a bad TB gasket, a mouse chewed vacuum line to the EGR valve and bad injectors.

The previous owner had the car in storage for a while and some unwanted guests decided to move in under the plenum. I never fixed a mouse damaged car before!

For a very resonable amount money and some fun time spend under the hood I replaced: EGR sensor, O2 sensor, EGR valve, all 8 injectors, several gaskets and fixed the vacuum leaks.

The car runs great, steady idle, no more code 32and the fuel economy improved a lot.

Thank you for sharing your knowledgeguys, your are great. Keep up with the good work.

Time to enjoy the ride and a cold one!
