Re: 89 RS wont stay on please help

sounds like a simple tune-up problem.. Check your air filters
replace the fuel filter if it hasnt been done in awhile.. Also get an induction service or fuel system flush done to clean out your fuel and intake system.. If that doesnt solve the problem.. Chek your ignition system.. plugs, wires cap and rotor! good luck with your new car

also, fuel pump might be going bad... i had the same problem. but i also replaced a lot more other stuff that it needed too.... computer, PCV, plugs and wires, dist and rotor, ign coil. Do tune-up, if no good, check fuel pump.

Weird, we have the exact same cars. Yours is what mine is supposed to look like, the paint is peeling on mine, what about yours. You have a black rear bumper, I have a black front ground effect.

Re: 89 RS wont stay on please help

im almost sure its the original paint cus where its chipped in front, it looks like its just the bumper no other paints or anything...know what i mean??...anywho it belonged to some old people who didnt drive it much so the paint is real clean...old people are cool they only put 42,00 miles on the car in 13 or 14 years haha
