Yes they are all the same. 83-89

I don't think so.

I'm starting to think it is an ETACS issue, what your describing is kind of what an immobilizer does. These cars had ETACS issues, especially the 87-model year. Try swapping it out with another one and see if that solves the issue.

How much for the turbo?

Car died while driving--wouldn't restart
TexasQuest replied to nc_beagle's topic in Virtual Mechanic
If you absolutely sure all the fuse links are good, even the main link on the battery terminal then I would check all the grounding points. 88_conquest_service_manual_-_group_26_-_electrical.pdf (starquestgarage.com) -

Those tubular subframes are so nice. I wish someone reputable could make them. -

Beautiful two-tone. -
Welcome. Interesting swap plan, most go with a turbo 6 or v8. You lucked out it being an auto trans car. The transmission tunnel is a little wider on the auto cars so it makes swaps a little easier. Any questions just ask away.

How can we bring life back into starquestclub?
TexasQuest replied to Mech's topic in Just plain ol' B.S.
Same here. But it's not just this forum that is suffering because of Facebook. Many other automotive forums are too as well. -
Interesting. Take lots of pics on this rack swap.

Repairing or Replacing Map Pocket Elastic Bands
TexasQuest replied to nc_beagle's topic in Newbie Question and Answers
I just pulled mine a little tighter and re-stapled it behind the door panel. -
Interesting you say this. I've talked to people at car meets that remember when these cars were new and said the same things about mechanical issues early on. One I distinctly remember was the voltmeter wiggling when the turn signals flashed when the cars were brand new.

Is the factory fuel filter worth keeping?
TexasQuest replied to Mike7447's topic in Virtual Mechanic
Personal preference, I guess. The factory design is definitely not pleasing to the eye. -
Welcome. Any questions don't hesitate to ask.

Why would I get rid of the balance shaft..
TexasQuest replied to Mike7447's topic in Just plain ol' B.S.
Better oil pressure & less moving parts to fail.
