Hey thanks for letting me on your forum! I'm glad there is a forum for wagon enthusiasts! I own a grey 1992 buick roadmaster estate wagon. I picked it up a number of years ago for our daily family driver. The family quickly fell in love with it and it is now lovingly referred to as "Elmer" lol! It got just shy of 350,000kms on it and its got a bit of a weak cylinder, but it is drop dead reliable. However my wife was driving it and she got rear-ended in traffic so now we have to do a mechanical inspection on it in order to be able to insure it again, so I'm in the process of repairing the little things here and there that it needs and also I need to get a body man to repair the massive dent in the tailgate. Thankfully there was no other damage done to the car. As soon as I bought the car I hit up ebay and bought a gm factory service manual specifically for it, it cost me $130 but it was worth every penny when I had to diag the A/C last year lol! I look forward to gaining knowledge from you all as I repair my car, and I will gladly help anyway I can

I do like the TBI for its simplicity and reliability, but it really falls on its face above 3500rpm. Some day if the stars align I may go for a vortec swap or an ls. At the very least I would like to put some vortec heads on for now I will settle just for driving the it lol! Theres nothing else like it!
