91 Dash swap

Hello, I was wondering if a dash out of a 90 or later corsica would fit into my 91 GTZ. I wanted to change them out because mine is warped from the previous owner letting it sit out in the sun. I was hoping that there would be little work involved because they are a lot alike. Any help on this would...

Re: Problems with my 91 GTZ

Re: Problems with my 91 GTZ

Well, I found out what was wrong with it. It was not the O2 sensor. Turns out that it was the one of the coil packs and a dead cylinder. I replaced the coil pack and put all new plugs and wires in. It runs like a champ now.

Re: Problems with my 91 GTZ

Going to replace O2 sensor today, and my buddy has a tool he can hook up to the car to see if anything else is wrong with it. The car runs and sounds like a gokart! but it should be all better soon lol.

Re: Problems with my 91 GTZ

Ok, I'll check it out tonight. Ever since the car has been messing up, it has become expensive to drive. I drove to work and back and was out about a quarter of a tank lol. I think my exhaust is leaking right before the cat because the pipe looks a little crooked and out of place, but not sure if th...

Re: Problems with my 91 GTZ

Well, like I said earlier, I have an exhaust leak up near the manifold and I was wondering if that could be throwing it off. The inside of my tailpipe is pitch black with carbon and whenever I floor it, you can smell pure gasoline.

Re: Problems with my 91 GTZ

Quick question about the o2 sensor. If it is bad, would the check engine light be on? Because mine is off and I heard the light will usually turn on if it has a bad sensor.

Re: Problems with my 91 GTZ

3X00 the way that you are making it sound seems like there should water elsewhere in the car. If thats what you mean then I'm not so sure about it because it is just the floor behind the passenger's seat. The front is not wet on either sides and the back seats are dry. And the floor is dry on the dr...

Re: Problems with my 91 GTZ

Well, there is a fair amount of rust on the underside of the car. And for the water leak, wouldnt anything else be wet if it was caused by a leak in the door or window? like the seats? I was thinking that there could be a small rust hole in the floor board and water could come inside whenever I am d...

Re: Problems with my 91 GTZ

Ok I'll check those places out, thanks. I noticed that I had what sounded like an exhaust leak up near the manifold. I was told that its normal and all berettas sound like that. Could that be part of the problem? Also, what are your opinions on straight piping the exhaust?

Re: Problems with my 91 GTZ

What about the leak inside the car? Anyone know where the water could be coming from? Its getting pretty bad since it has been raining alot more lately. Any suggestions on drying it all the way up so that it does not get worse?

Re: Problems with my 91 GTZ

Re: Problems with my 91 GTZ

It hesitates then takes off. I am also getting very bad MPG and it smells like it is running real rich. I was thinking that it could be the injectors, or a bad plug/plugwire. I also thought it could be the transmission slipping because it doesn't take off like it should, but I think thats pretty muc...
