First question, did it run like crap and have no low end after you replaced parts?
This brown mush as you describe. Is it just sludge from rust? Or does it seem to be like a milkshake?

2 things, read the FAQ and SEARCH bro, thats the easiest thing to do... and welcome to the gsl-se world, if you didnt live in the bay, id reccomend a carb swap, but you have the emissions nazis there..

well, if you can get your se to Napa, i'd be happy to help you troubleshoot it and at least tune it a bit. let me know :)

by the way Napa is only about 45 minutes away from sf 'bout 15 miles past vallejo.

RXseven- why a carb swap on a GSL-SE?

Some people like the cheap, easy power. FI is for people with time, money and patience.

patience is a virtue....but that doesn't mean I have any!!! :rlaugh:

because alot of people dont do it, and i like the reall sleek clean look of it... and its easier to diagnos if something is wrong..

i got my new radiator for my 84 GSL from radiators.com for 122 shipped, and that was 2 day shipping... seems like a solid unit... unlike one other report i read tho, my radiator doesn't leak, and i went from a single row radiator to dual row, since thats what radiators.com shipped me :D
