1. Retrieve your key ring from beneath the steamroller or use your spare key to unlock the driver's door. As soon as you open it, the alarm will sound, but as soon as you get the key in the ignition and switch it on the alarm will silence and you'll have your starter back. This is in the owner's manual.
2. Max AC is with the top down. Your owner's manual will tell you that max AC is the big side-to-side arrow with the snowflake depressed. The fan speed is position 4 (out of 3) and the recirculation flap will close. That is, if your AC still exists.
3. Yes. There is a vacuum leak inside the car or in the recirculation servo that closes the flap, just like in my '92 convertible. Technically you should not be using the front window defroster with the recirculation flap closed, but it will do both at once, like the occasional skunk-while-it's-raining event.
4. TSS sells threaded aluminum inserts (this assumes your threads will not strip out the new parts here) for where the plastic adjuster bases are now. Don't ask me how to get them out of there.
1. The seat rails and adjustment mechanisms changed from 900 style (1979-1990) to 9000 style (1991-1993 +94 Cabrio) and others have tried to bolt the 9000 seat rails on the '88ish seats, but I haven't heard about the results. Search this bulletin board.
2. I'm pretty sure that means richness. (For lean, go after vacuum leaks.) That's probably an air mass meter, though the following items can also cause a rich condition:
lazy or failed oxygen sensor
failed or internally-leaking fuel pressure regulator
incomplete combustion (old spark plugs at wrong gap with a worn-out non-Bosch distributor cap and rotor with deposit-clogged fuel injectors and lots of buildup around the throttle valve)
3. I'm not a turbo guy yet, but I'm guessing not much. The turbo engines stayed the same (except for a minor head redesign in '88 and addition of water cooling lines in '88 and a different turbo in '90) from '85 all the way to '94, no? I know you use different iterations of LH from year to year, but the engine might be similar. Check whether the '88 has newer-style head oil passages or the older (bleedable) type.
These are my best guesses.
