    Help with random jerking during cruise

    Stock MAF or modern MAF with a translator? How old are the spark plug wires? If the are getting some age on them look for cracks or burnt spots on the wires and boots. Also, what is the age of the ignition coil?

    Starting when warmed up paranoia

    If your fuel pressure is at 43 psi the entire time the engine is cranking then fuel should not be the issue.

    Starting when warmed up paranoia

    Do you have a fuel pressure gauge? That would tell you if fuel pressure is present while cranking.

    Starting when warmed up paranoia

    How old is are the ignition components (coil, ignition module) Heat soak can cause issues on those items if they are getting weak. What spark plugs and what are they gapped at?

    "Fueling Issue"

    I have a spectra tank in my 86 GN and I only encounter the filling issues you mentioned one in a while at certain pumps. Now my 87 WE4 has a prestine stock tank and it is definitely more difficult to fill. A good stock tanks baffling/fuel bucket is far superior to the Spectra.

    Stock Harness to Holley Adapter?

    In the end I don't think you will regret getting a new harness. While I don't have a Holley or any other aftermarket ECU, I did just replace the stock harness on my 86 GN with a new Casper's harness. My Stock harness "appeared" to be in great shape from the outside appearance. Last year I...

    Oil in coolant. Lean rougg idle

    Have you done an oil analysis? That will show very small amounts of coolant in the oil. There needs to be alot of coolant in the oil for it to be visible on the dip stick or in the drain pan. Blackstone Labratories is the one I use. For example when I run above 32psi in my 86 GN my oil...

    What turbo?

    I can't help you on the turbo size, but if the car still has the stock transmission as stated in your post, I would be planning on upgrading that very soon. If your planning on going E85 I can only assume you plan to run higher boost, which the trans will not like much. A proper trans...

    What wheels are these?

    They look like Weld S71s with a bead lock. Depending on diameter, offset, spoke style and options like bead lock, the looks of the wheel can change alot. https://www.weldwheels.com/wheels/forged/s71

    Interesting find..

    I found an interesting factory flaw on my 86 GN. To my surprise last winter I discovered the drivers floor board was rusted out, from the inside out, and that is the only rust on the car. The factory carpet with the rubber membrane backed padding sealed the moisture in and I had no idea...
