-- In early October I bought a White '90 Q45 w 157k for $200. It's real clean under the hood and the exterior only has a few blemishes. Problem is four injectors aren't working. I'm looking for someone in St Louis who is familiar with the plenum job, who would be willing to work for cash on their time. I just don't have the time, energy or skills to attempt this job. I do have all 8 injectors and insulators. Please feel free to email me if interested. Thanx, Nico is Nice.

$200 dollars? i would buy five of them at that price if i could find them..... Theres a 1990 brown one in the junkyard near me thats quite minty on the outside, but the chains came off. They won't sell me it either. If you want to get it running right, the cheapest and best way is to do it yourself. Hit the books or do alot of research on this forum. BTW don't bring it to a dealership. You would have to sell your house to get it running right through them. Honestly, part the car up, save all the money, buy a better running one and put the rest of the money into it. Or buy another parts car and combine the 2 with what you can salvage, part one out and thats your money for parts. Having a parts car is one of the best things you can have with these. Thats my opinion.

I'm not sure that a part out is profitable any more on these cars. Even the MAF is going for about $25 on eBay now. Climate controllers are going for $10... other than the throttle body, nothing seems to be desirable out on the market now. I vote for a DIY fix if you're up to it.
