Pround owner of a beautiful 88 GXL - but
1. I have/had the 3800 syndrome, it appears to have lessend/gone away with the arrival of colder weather - Do I have a grouding issue or something else? Thoughts>>
2. Every couple of weeks I get a low coolant light/buzzer on hard right corners, it usually takes about 6-8 oz of coolant/water. I am careful to fill radiator, then loosen bleeder, then fill filler, while squeezing hose. Funny thing is the overflow bottle level doesn't change??? Repalced Rad Cap and Filler Cap - Thoughts?
3. Now today I can't get the key in the D/S lock, wandering Ebay theres a lot of door handles no door locks. What do I have to replace? Lock or handle assembly?
Lastly, though I love the car dearly and plan to keep it along time, what else should i expect to break? What should I stock up on NOS/Used
Thanks for patience

1. Do grounds and check actuators but consider secondary injectors - they were my problem in my 1988 Vert
2. I had a small leak at the filler cap - check for drips after a run.
3. Sounds like the lock tumbler itself.
Just a few ideas.
