Hey, new guy here. '92 LS automatic w/180K. Bought 3 years ago w/150K. Paint's shot, interior's gorgeous, obviously very well maintained by previous owners. Runs and shifts perfectly. When I bought it, needed CV's and a new muffler/tailpipe. Since then, it's had tires, brakes, thermostat, and very recently did timing belt, acc belts, water pump, cam and front crank seals, plugs and wires (dist cap and rotor to arrive soon), replaced the battery (which was in it when I bought it-- it tested bad the other day, but the alternator checks fine), and cleaned the shifter position switch (to fix the key removal problem in cold weather). Oil changes have been Mobil 1 High Mileage with Pure One filters. I put a can of Seafoam in the tank every other oil change or so. It could probably use struts, but no blatant problems. Been getting about 25 mpg city.
Starting next week I'll have a 110-mile daily round trip commute to/from my new job in Asheville, NC every day. Easy interstate miles. I love this car, and fully intend to get 500K out of it... anything else you can think of I should check/do to get it in shape? Thanx for any ideas.
