kirban 2 cents worth
I am getting a late start tonite.....
First, the answers I was seeking and I discussed with Richard to equal 15 possibilites under the hood of a stock 1986-1987 Turbo Regal are: Keep in mind the answers I am stating are not exactly GM terms of what they are called.
Air filter
oil filter
oil pump screen
wastegate solenoid foam filter (by the way goes on inside port towards engine!
windshield washer screen at end of the tube
breather bypass passenger valve cover
intercooler screen (which by the way in th GM books is not listed as a seperate part but part of the shroud)
egr flter (this goes in the rectangle shaped part behind the round egr valve. Partially blocked from your vision its under that snap on round plastic cap. Orginally it was a paper like filter, replace is a foam style filter usually neglected by every owner).
fuel vapor canister best be described as a quart size plastic container usually moved when owners install a cold air system. It has a fiber like disc in the bottom.
the one Richard and I thought would be tough would be the 6 injectors and it took awhile for that answer to "pop up" That gives credit for 6.
That was the 15 total we were seeking. Actually 13 as I gave 2 answers.
In addition you have the leaf screen up by the passenger cowl.
We don't buy the radiator reservoir cap as having any sort of filter or screen system internally. The design may be such to keep dirt out but splitting hairs we don't consider it as a correct answer. Same with O2 sensor again design may be such to work in the same method.
I did not want to bother Richard on some of the other responses and I am not implying they are rite or wrong because winners only had to hit 13 of the 15 total.
The fuel related ones did not count as they are not under the hood. Neither did the heater one since that is heater/ac related.
My mechanical knowledge is not as strong as my knowledge of the rest related parts to the turbo regal so I consulted with Richard.
The one winner has given me his address and his prizes are ready to ship.
This thread is getting a lot of attention and hopefully we are all learning something.
I will have more info on body bushings/cushions tomorrow nite. Example, in checking with GM the Olds Cutlass took a 2 piece #5 bushing. Not the same as the GNX style bushing that we sell to the Turbo Regal owners. Our GNX #5 busing is a one piece bushing.
We used to buy #5 GNX bushings direct from GM but I believe we and others have wiped them out and now we buy a replacement aftermarket that is basically the same.
Congrads to the winners. Next post will be the start of a new contest. I liek to see more participation as it keeps it interesting.
If you want to post your trunk ID label go ahead and I can diesect most of it for you.

Keeping readers thinking......
:biggrin:
, and my wheels still had some white pressure sensitive UPC code stickers on them. Some are still on my original wheels. I don't know if these are the answers you are looking for Dennis but that's how my car was delivered. Paul
