Hello all. This is board is such an amazing resource.

I've recently acquired an '87 740 w/ 90k miles. It seems that the original radiator is still in place. I'm thinking that a replacement is probably my top priority as far as preventive maintenance. While it's being done I'll probably have the hoses, heater valve and thermostat replaced as well. I've noticed that thermostats have different degree ratings 82, 87, 90 etc.. which is recommended?

The other concerns on my list are motor mounts (already diagnosed as problematic by the recent repair records of previous owner) and I guess, eventually....the wiring harness.

I'm also working on some small DYI jobs like the windshield washer T-Valve (done today,) trunk struts, and antenna mast replacement.

On the bright side, the car has already had some extensive work done to it over the past year by the previous owner - catalytic converter, fluids, new battery, fuel and supression relays, distributor cap and rotor, plugs and wires, mass air flow sensor, strut rod bushings, a tie rod, flame shield, ISC valve.

I'm still awaiting some missing service records and I'm concerned as to whether or not the timing belt has been changed yet. If it hasn't that my go on the list after motor mounts.

If anyone has any suggestion as to prioritize these service items or point out anything that I may have missed please let me know.

Thanks in advance,
Marc
