Re: looking at '92

Yes, have the cpi injector and nut kit checked for leaking.

See if it starts right up or if it takes more revolutions to get it to fine initially.

Check for maintanence and fluid changes and check.

Re: looking at '92

Does it have the thottle body or CPI injection system.

Round filter on top of the engine = TBI

Spider plenum on top with the vortec name plate on it = CPI

Install a aftermarket muffler.

Re: looking at '92

Set some money aside for a CPI injector and nut kit replacement.

You paid $2200 to fix all that?
