I have now joined the multiple-SWB owner club! My grandparents called me last week asking what to do with their Raider since they bought a new car to replace it. After some talking it became mine <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> They've had it since it was a few years old and its in great shape. It does have the popular "lack of power" issue, however.

I've read a lot of posts about everything from a clogged cat to a bad coil causing that issue so I'll have some troubleshooting to do. I was just about to get some parts for my Raider when they called me about this so I may just end up going for a carb.

Now on to the small differences. I have replaced the front calipers on this thing before so I know they are a bit different than my '87. There are some cosmetic differences like the speedo, wheels, and steering wheel. This one also has bars over the rear side windows which is neat. I am curious about the mechanical changes in case my Raider becomes a parts truck. Both of them have rebuilt 2.6's and both are on the original transmissions.

An issue I need to figure out is the start/flywheel. Sometimes the starter will just grind instead of catch. I just have to let off, let the starter spin down, and give it another try and it will catch and fire up. I have two flywheels laying around so if this is a typical flywheel issue it won't be too bad. What do you guys think?
