Title: Hello from the Pacific Northwest, 1987 Eagle Limited Wagon
Post by: geofferito on December 15, 2011, 03:04:23 PM
Hi Eagle fans,

I've been driving my Mom's 1987 Eagle for the last month. It's a bit cold blooded, but it's fun and retro. I'm uploading a photo now.

Also my Dad just bought a 1985 Eagle Wagon to save it from the crusher. As soon as I get more details, I will update this thread.

Thanks,
-Geoff

Thanks. He will try to get it started. But if that does not work... well it may just be a good bunch of useable replacement parts.

There are new spark plugs in it and the rest of the tune up parts, including a new O2 sensor were left on the front seat.  I'll have to figure out where some stray wire go but it should start as soon as I get a new battery.

You could n u t t e r it and not worry about the O2 and such.  could save you a lot of troubleshooting time.

It looks like the silver parts car does not run yet, but it has started to donate parts to my Mom's Eagle.
