Sure, its old, the injectors leak a bit and compression is not what it used to be. Do a search for a fuel switch. If you buy, switch can get you by for a while, but, you will need to spend some $$ at some point.

Someone fixed this by replacing the FPR!

If you could get him (or her) down a few hundered it might be better. If its cherry throughout, I would buy it. A DYI overhaul with a mild streetport and injectors cleaned, and you have a sweet ride.
