Re: 1996 850 turbo, from no start to starts/dies

UPDATE: Abscate, good idea on the pictures. Here's one of the hose I was talking about. PXL_20201027_203925470.jpg It's the passenger side of the intake manifold, with a tear on top of the larger hose. It runs 1-2 cm deep. I felt around and believe I could feel the "end" of the smaller hos...

Re: 1996 850 turbo, from no start to starts/dies

UPDATE: I looked at how the car behaves a bit more, and have discovered that the engine will run as long as I want if I'm gently pressing the gas pedal. Engine sounds smooth. But releasing the gas pedal will cause the car to die at idle. Because of this, I'm going to clean the Idle Air Control Valve...

1996 850 turbo, from no start to starts/dies

Hey all, My 850 turbo has been sitting for approximately a year in Ohio. Only 130k miles. This past fall I attempted to start it and received nothing but a click. This led me down a long list of tests and fixes, including: 1) Replaced oil/filter, fuel, primed cylinders with a cap of oil, charged bat...

Re: '96 850 radiator leak problem

Okay, so I tried applying a fair amount of JB Water Weld stuff to the leak point on the top of the radiator. I'll let it cure for an hour or two before giving the car a test run to see if the leak's fixed or at least subsided.

Re: '96 850 radiator leak problem

Update: I cleaned it off, filled the coolant up and drove it around. Pretty hot day today. When I finished my ~20 minute drive I discovered a hissing noise from near the TOP of the radiator! Discovered bubbling on the same side as the original dripping. Got JB Water Weld. I'm going to let the engine...

'96 850 radiator leak problem

Hey y'all, new user here I've discovered a fairly steady leak in my radiator. It appears to drip from a seam on the passenger's side of the radiator (see picture attachment). I wanted to ask if there were any temporary fixes for this problem until I could get a replacement as money is tight for me. ...
