There's is one on CL in Hannibal, MO less than 50K miles, one owner, just as clean if not cleaner, started this summer wanting 12,500 down to 8,500. Seeing the background in photo's he doesn't need the money..

Crap, you're probably right! I think the temp sensor is also a little wack!
-
I have an 87 Starion and the gauge would read under half. I put an OVC pipe with BOV on and had to remove the extra pulley that the a/c was on. I'm going to delete the a/c anyways. After I did that and put a new cone filter on, I go to drive it and the oil pressure gauge is pegged!?!? It can't be from air filter and hard pipe, can it? I figured it must be because I took out the pulley and belt that ran the a/c compressor..

I got it all hooked up. I do need to take some pictures though because someone who owned this car previous has neglected the crap out of it. vacuum lines missing, hood prop is shorter than normal, and no antenna.
-
Go it, thanks. This is the first mod i've done on the car besides taking the secondary air canister off because the only mod on the car is full 3" exhaust so it was just doing nothing. I think the last few people who owned this car had no idea, because there is a few things plugged off or just completely missing..
-
okay thanks, I was looking through the vacuum line section and not the bov's. closet to the firewall of the 3 on the tb, got it. One last question.. that line runs almost all the way around the engine bay, where is the best place to T into that line? Or does that even matter?
-
Being new to starquests & turbo cars in general has it's draw backs, but i'm learning. I just received an OVC pipe with BOV and looking to find a best spot to run the vacuum line to from the BOV cap..

Anyone cruise around the Quad Cities?

Driving home the other night and my dash lights went off, washer & ABS light stayed on but the dash went dark.. a few miles later they came on, then a minute later... off again? Any suggestions
-
That car is sweet! looks pretty clean!
-
It looked like crap when I found it... had a buddy paint & polish wheels, valve cover,turbo heat shield, ovc pipe, and got the cone filter. Had to replace radiator.. deleted the a/c. It's been fun! I'm going to get more pics of the Starion tomorrow
-
Took my time, about two hours & two bloody knuckles but got the window up and in.. Time to clean the connection and hopefully get the switch working again!
-
Just picked up an 87 Starion, now I can call myself a true Starquest owner. It's a 5spd and much more fun to drive than the automatic conquest!

Alright, thanks guys. I'll have pics soon, tried to upload off the iPad and they were too big.
-
My replacement radiator doesn't have holes in which to screw in thermo switch.. How can I manually or automatically get my fans to kick on?
-
I will check it out, thanks jimmy
-
My bad, just checked and it's no longer on there but a guy had one for sale in Boone, Ia.
-
Check Des Moines, Iowa Craigslist

Yeah it was a combination of 95+ sunny day and already worked 2 hours grabbing everything useful off it that me and a buddy could carry. Unfortunately it's already gone through the crusher and every other junkyard around town doesn't have any starquest's. I was sure I could find something on window motor replacement or door speaker upgrades but have had no success finding any threads
-
So my power window stopped working and I impatiently broke my window! Luckily I jacked a bunch of parts off an 87 that was in the junk yard before they crushed it. Will the 87 window work in my 89 and what's the easiest way to remove the door panel. The one in the junkyard was a maroon interior and I just Tasmanian deviled the door panel off.. Any tips, pics, etc. would be greatly appreciated!!
-
Just found out it has one load tail alarm too!

I picked up a 89 SHP TSI automatic out of Missouri and after two months of tinkering she's on the road! Looking at a 87 ESI-R also, it's a manual and I think would be nice to own one two! These cars are so much fun!
