I'm the guy who's 88 gle turbo wagon was stolen. When I got it back, she was really in pain.
Updates:
Got her running like a champ now. Working on restoring the interior thanks to a couple in GA who are parting one out.
As to all the oil smoke: as assumed, the excess oil level was allowing the engine vacuum to pull oil into the intake.
As to the flooding: sure enough, it was the fuel pressure regulator (also as assumed, this was the source of excess oil level)
Brakes still in need of attention, but much better after a good fluid bleed.
Questions:
Still having a smoke issue when first started after sitting. After driving the car a mile or so, oil smoke is gone. Sound like turbo oil seals?
Also, I'm going to have a B G top engine clean done on the car....... think I should yank the intercooler & clean it out myself first?
