  • California models?

    No not those kind of models.huhuhh Are the California cars any different than the other 49 states? ie. (emmisions & safety). May be buying a car from there and was just wondering. Thanks.

    No, unless it's a super early production first half of '88 car, those (very few) had a different trans. But other than that... All are same.
    Trees aren't kind to me...

    currently: 2 88Ls (Scrappy and Jersey), 88LX, 90L(Pepe), 91L, 91GL (Skippy) 93 GL Sport (the Mighty Favakk), 94 (Bruce) & 95 Aspire SEs, 97 Aspire (The Joker),
    94 Justy 4WD, 87 Fiero GT, plus 2 parts cars. That's my fleet.

            What's the difference in gearing?

              Its in the 4-speed tranny. One of them, 4th gear was like 4th gear in a 5-speed, the other one 4th gear was like 5th gear in a 5-speed. I've had both the different 4-speeds.

              Is there a difference in the EGR valve also? I have seen 2 different versions of that on carbed cars also.

                So basically the early 4 speed has a taller, more overdriven 4th gear?

                Because the 4 speed I drove was like a 5 speed without fifth.

                  Calif carbie has a sensor on the EGR valve and wiring harness has jumpers removed - 2 on the 88, one on the 89.
                  When I'm good I'm very, very good and when I'm bad I'm HORRID.
