Best advice I can offer:

Put a bag over the distributer. Make sure it goes all the way down beyond the wire harness plug that is right there. That is the TFI... Those are wonderful.

Use a low pressure spray and rinse off the motor and surround parts with the car running (the heat will help the electrical stuff)

Good Luck and welcome to the boards!

I'm assuming its an 88 (check his screen name). Explain pre87 rear quarters.

02TruBlueGt · Aug 23, 2006

yes its a 88gt 5spd so what do you mean by pre87 quarters

srothfuss · Aug 23, 2006

Actually the front 1/4 panel from at least 1983 and up will fit until 1993. I think the 1979-1982 stuff works also, but I don't want to get it wrong in the post.

because it's been one of those nights
