Well, as my name states, my SHO is always broken in some way or other. BUT, is takes a million lickins and keeps on tickin somehow.
Here is a general list of what is wrong at the present time.
Motor mounts shot totally, along with the tranny mount im sure.
I get some kind of misfire, or lack of power in the low end sometimes.
Missing vacuum hose to the intake, between the throttle body and the runners.
Coolant leak from ****...I just add water nowadays, well whenever I take off the radiator cap, I have a BROWN residue, and the water itself in there always winds up brown. I've even seen some little brown pieces, either metal, or dirt, haven't FULLY inspected it, either way, it's not good.
Burns oil, pretty bad, and I have new valve cover gaskets and spark plug tube seals.
O yea, takes quite a bit of turnin over before it fires up. New starter even, and plugs and wires.
Whole suspension is shot, squeaks, rattles, etc etc.
After long driving, or driving, then off car, then on car, etc etc, get a BAD knock, either with the valves or pistons/rods, either way, it's so bad that my car has shut itself down before twice and been smoking. Drive it 20min to an hour later after it's cool and its a ok.
Thats about it, minus other "smaller" things. This thing still runs like **** though when its in a good mood, and man I never want anything other than a SHO. Maybe not MY SHO, but another SHO.
