i also had an 88 turbo coupe i just recently got rid of to the ole "car
heaven".rear was going bad in it also,but it had 324,000 miles on it so i
guess my rear would also be bad with that mileage.original motor got ok
mileage,but had the TFI/stator misfire problem and i was tired of it going
through them like water.nice car,but my SHO replaced it nicely-besides my 7
year old son like the SHO cause it's much fatser LOL!BOB
