Just got through replacing a bunch of stuff on my 88 9000 turbo, the most noticeable being the oil dipstick tube O-ring!
There used to be a small drip mark of oil everywhere I parked it, no matter how long, and the rear mount was covered in oil.
NO LONGER! Hahahahaha! Of course, it was a pain in the neck to get to, and I totally took off the bracket over the rear lower motor mount. Also took a fair amount of squeezing and clamping to get the new O-ring in place.
Here's all the other stuff I took care of:
Rubber sway bar bushings
Polyurethane rear control arm bushings
New voltage regulator (preventative ...)
Foglights back on (I really need to learn to be careful parking!)
Oil change (why o why can't it be like the 2.3 liter engine!)
Just thought I'd share--it feels like a brand new car. Pulls great--love that boost! Now all that's left before winter is an alignment, new front tires, and finally fixing my intermittent ABS problem (pretty sure I have that one figured out).
