considering purchase 850 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be Jack on  Thu Feb 1 03:58 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I have come across a DEAL on an 1993 850. It was wrecked and has been repaired. Just 37,000 miles and minor interior issues. But.... the check engine light is on, I've read how to check the codes, no problem. The car sat for approx 1 1/2 years and not sure if it was started on a regular basis.

What I need to know are the following:

-Any other place to get the Pocket Data Booklet? (online versions, etc)?

-The stereo, with cd changer capabilities, is 'locked', how can I get it 'unlocked' without the code?

-Any issues with 5 speed manual trans and clutch?

Any other comments, suggestions, etc., would be greatly appreciated.

I also would like to know where to get an original owners manual for the vehicle.
