I stumbled across a very clean, very smooth running 1989 420 SEL. One owner. 210,000 miles. Timing Chain changed at 110,000 .. It starts on the first grunt of the starter, less than a 1/2 second. No ticks, no leaks, no smoke. All maintenance logs, interior clean (not detailed to make it just look clean). The only odd thing is when I checked the oil, it looked very clean and I smelled it. It had a smell that I associated with a failing motor... hard to describe, but thin, almost like oil and hydrocarbons mixed.

I know that timing chains should be changed every 100,000 - But the 210,000 does concern me. I also heard if the chain snaps in these, you can bend a valve? Is that true that the 1989's had interference motors?

Thank you in advance for your opinions.

My Check Engine light recently turned on and the OBD code read: P1400 - Auxilary Emission Controls. Funny thing is that it has turned off twice, once when I washed the car and the other time is when it was raining? Any ideas than can help me identify the problematic sensor?

At $700-900 each, this seems to be unexcusable. Doesn't GM stand behind their vehicles?

I'm not looking for just a performance noise factor but real noticeable horsepower gains that is good for towing and also some fun. My truck now has 3:92 gears, auto. Are chips really good? How much h.p. do they really add? A full blown exhaust system-headers and duals, Is this real h.p. or noise factor? How about t.b. spacers are they good?My experience with cold air intake is noise factor not h.p. I would appreciate some feed back from someone who has tried different items and had a positive experience. Thank you...

The truck does not quit completely, it just refuses to accellerate. To temporarilly fix it, I simply remove my foot from the accelerator pedal until the RPM reaches about 1,000 and the everything returns to normal until the next time, which may be in 2 mintes or 2 days.
