I also have a 1988 SPG (but only 130,000 miles -- nice to know I can expect another 170K or so).
Maybe here's your problem: My car recently developed an exhaust system sounding rattle that totally disappears with the engine under load (or as I drive), I only hear it as the motor returns to idle, and at idle. It can be VERY loud, sounds like a bunch of loose screws in a tin can going down a flight of stairs. This is from the catalytic converter. In my case the car hit some nasty pot holes, must have broken something loose inside the CC. A new CC can be bought for $150 from a site sponsor.
Be glad its not a 9000 CSE, those CCs go for big bucks.
